The map

About this Bek’ojī map poster

Bek’ojī lies in the Arsi Zone of Oromia, in the Ethiopian highlands, at an altitude of roughly 2,800 metres. The town is modest in size. On the map, a few main roads and a simple street network are surrounded by farmland and open highland country. Tracks and paths reach outward toward the fields and villages around it.

The town is famous far beyond its size as the home of an extraordinary number of world-class long-distance runners. Olympic champions Kenenisa Bekele, Tirunesh Dibaba and Derartu Tulu all come from Bek’ojī or its immediate surroundings. The combination of altitude, open country and a strong local running culture is often credited for that success.

A Bek’ojī map poster honours that story. Its roads and tracks become more than a street plan: they are the routes where champions trained. In black and white, the simple layout surrounded by open land makes a spare and powerful image.

Simple street plan

A handful of main roads and a small grid form the town's core, a spare and clear layout at the centre of the poster.

02

Highland tracks

Paths and dirt roads spread across the surrounding farmland. They're thin lines on the map, known as the kind of routes where local runners train.

03

Open plateau

The town is surrounded by open highland country, giving the print wide margins and emphasising how small and concentrated the settlement is.
