Town grid
Wide streets cross at right angles in a regular pattern, forming blocks of similar size. On the poster, the grid reads as a crisp, almost diagrammatic core.

The map
About this Hoopstad map poster
Hoopstad lies in the north-western Free State, where farmland stretches to the horizon and roads run straight for long distances. The town follows a clear grid, a common pattern for Free State settlements laid out in the nineteenth century, with wide blocks and streets meeting at right angles. Beyond the grid, the map opens into large rectangular fields that continue in every direction.
The Vet River passes close to the town on its way to the Vaal, and its winding course is the one natural curve in an otherwise geometric landscape. Along the river, small drainage lines and cultivated plots break up the land. Elsewhere, the district is known for maize and other grain crops, grown on fields large enough to read clearly even at a wide scale.
A Hoopstad map poster shows the discipline of a planned farming town: the grid at its centre, the residential areas beside it and the long roads leading out to farms and neighbouring towns. In the spare Classic style it looks almost architectural, a set of clean lines on a broad white field, with the river adding one loose, living stroke.

Vet River
The river loops past the town in slow bends, lined by a thin band of vegetation. It is the only strongly curving line on the map and gives the composition its movement.
Farm roads
Long, straight roads run out into the countryside and divide it into large fields. They lead the eye to the edges of the print and show the scale of the surrounding land.

Why Hoopstad
A map that means something
