The map
Kimpese lies in Kongo Central province in the far west of DR Congo, on the main corridor between the port of Matadi and Kinshasa. From above, the town is organised around that corridor. The national road and the railway run through it side by side, and a network of streets and plots branches off towards the hills and valleys on either side.
The land here is rolling savanna and farmland, broken by streams and wooded slopes, so the town has an irregular, spreading outline. Kimpese is best known in the region for its large evangelical medical institute, a hospital and training centre that has served the province for decades and brings patients from well beyond the town.
A Kimpese map poster shows a corridor town clearly. Road and rail form two strong parallel lines, and the neighbourhoods grow outward from them in a looser pattern. The hills and streams appear as open space. It is a simple, legible composition, and it tells you at once how the town lives: by the traffic passing between the sea and the capital.
The national road and the railway cross the town together. On the map they form a strong spine that the whole settlement is built around.
Kimpese's well-known hospital and training complex occupies its own grounds. It is one of the reasons many people in Kongo Central know the town.
Low hills, streams and farmland surround the town. Beyond the built-up area the map becomes an open, lightly lined landscape.

Why Kimpese
For people who studied, worked or were treated in Kimpese, and for families from the town, a map of its streets along the corridor is a meaningful keepsake. It suits a home, a clinic or an office.
Personalise the title and subtitle, perhaps with a name and a year, and adjust the coordinates line. Then select Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand.
