The map
Ashaiman lies immediately north of Tema in Greater Accra, and on a map the two appear almost joined, separated mainly by major roads and the edge of Tema's planned layout. Ashaiman itself has a very different texture: a tightly packed mesh of short streets and lanes, with few open spaces and buildings filling nearly every block.
The town grew rapidly in the second half of the twentieth century as workers came to the harbour and factories of Tema, which was developed as a planned port city from the 1950s onward. Ashaiman offered housing close to those jobs, and it grew largely without a master plan. Today it is a municipality in its own right, with large markets and a young population.
An Ashaiman map poster captures that contrast clearly. Tema's numbered communities appear as orderly, curving layouts, while Ashaiman forms a fine, dense grain beside them. Even in a minimal black-and-white design, the density gives the print a rich, almost textile quality that rewards close viewing.
Short, closely spaced streets fill almost the whole town, creating a very fine, even texture when seen from above, with only a few open spaces breaking it up.
Where Ashaiman meets Tema, the grain of the map changes sharply, from irregular lanes to the broader planned layouts of Tema's numbered communities.
Main roads run through and around the town toward Tema, Accra and the east, forming the few long, straight lines in a map otherwise made of small pieces.
