Dike-side streets
The older parts of town follow dikes and waterways, so the historic street pattern runs in long lines rather than radiating from a single square.

Tabula
Krommenie is part of the municipality of Zaanstad in North Holland, at the northwestern end of the built-up Zaan region. Like many settlements in this part of the Netherlands, its older streets follow dikes and waterways, with houses and workplaces strung out beside them and flat, reclaimed land opening out behind.
Around the town the polder landscape takes over: long rectangular fields separated by ditches, stretches of open water and nature areas nearby, and the straight lines of roads and rail. Krommenie has a notable industrial history, above all as a centre of linoleum manufacturing, which began here at the end of the nineteenth century and remains linked with the town's name.
A Krommenie map poster turns this into a finely balanced graphic: the older streets along the water, newer neighbourhoods laid out in neat blocks, and the ruler-straight ditches of the polders beyond. Few landscapes translate into black and white as cleanly as a Dutch polder, and Krommenie shows exactly why at a glance.
The older parts of town follow dikes and waterways, so the historic street pattern runs in long lines rather than radiating from a single square.
Surrounding fields are divided by straight drainage ditches into long rectangular parcels, giving the edges of the map a precise, graphic rhythm.
The railway passes through town as a straight, firm line that separates neighbourhoods and ties Krommenie to Zaandam, Amsterdam and the north.

Cur Krommenie
Krommenie is a place of ordinary Dutch life, of bike paths, water and quiet neighbourhoods, and that is exactly why people who live or grew up here feel strongly about it. A map shows the town as locals know it, framed by polders and water.
Change the title, subtitle and coordinates line to suit, perhaps with a street name or a date, and choose Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand. The $9 download covers six sizes, and printed posters with an optional wooden frame are also available.
