The map

About this Hamburg map poster

Hamburg sits on the Elbe around a hundred kilometres from the North Sea, and its map is shaped by water at every scale. The river splits into channels around the port, the Alster widens into two lakes in the city centre, and narrow canals, the Fleete, run between buildings. Few European cities show so much open water, or in black and white so much pale space, in their outline.

The port is one of the largest in Europe, filling the south bank with docks, basins and container terminals that print as long, clean-edged shapes. North of the river, the Speicherstadt, a UNESCO-listed warehouse district of red-brick blocks set on oak piles, leads into HafenCity, where the Elbphilharmonie stands on a former quay. Hamburg is often said to have more bridges than any other European city.

A Hamburg map poster brings these layers together: the inner lake of the Binnenalster, the larger Aussenalster ringed by villas and rowing clubs, the regular streets of Eimsbüttel and the curving docks across the Elbe. It is a map with strong horizontal movement and a quiet centre, easy to read from across a room and rewarding to study closely.

01

Alster lakes

The small Binnenalster and the much larger Aussenalster sit in the middle of the city, their open water forming the calmest and most recognisable shapes on the poster.

02

Speicherstadt canals

The warehouse district's narrow canals and long brick blocks create a precise pattern of parallel lines, one of the finest details in any map of Hamburg.

03

Port basins

South of the Elbe, harbour basins cut into the land like the teeth of a comb, a geometry that only a working port of this size produces.

Why Hamburg

A map that means something

Hamburg is a city people feel attached to for its water, its weather and its neighbourhoods. A map suits a first flat in Altona, an office in HafenCity, or a Hamburger living elsewhere who wants the Alster back on the wall.

Change the title to your district or a family name, add a date such as a wedding or a move, and adjust the coordinates line. Pick one of five styles, Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand, in any of six print sizes.
