Shoreline street bands
Long avenues run parallel to the sea, with short perpendicular streets reaching the sand. From above they form a ladder-like pattern that traces the whole length of the town.

In pariete



Tabula
Seen from above, Matinhos is mostly a single long edge. Streets run parallel to the Atlantic in narrow bands, and short cross streets drop down to the sand at regular intervals. Behind them the built-up area thins quickly, giving way to forested slopes that climb toward the Serra do Mar. On a map it looks like a town drawn along a ruler, with the ocean setting the direction of every block.
Matinhos sits on the short coastline of Paraná, one of the smallest stretches of seafront of any Brazilian state. The Caiobá district, part of the municipality, has long been a summer destination for families from Curitiba, who come down from the plateau when the weather turns hot. Out of season the town is quieter, and the rhythm of the grid along the beach becomes the thing you notice most.
A Matinhos map poster shows that tension between coast and mountain very clearly. The white of the sea fills one side of the frame, the fine street pattern follows the shoreline, and the higher ground inland appears as open, lightly marked space. Small headlands break the beach into separate curves, and each one changes the angle of the streets behind it, so the town never quite repeats itself.
Long avenues run parallel to the sea, with short perpendicular streets reaching the sand. From above they form a ladder-like pattern that traces the whole length of the town.
The Caiobá district, part of Matinhos, is a denser section of the seafront where the grid tightens and taller buildings line the shore, clearly visible as a heavier patch on the map.
Inland, streets give way to the forested foothills of the Serra do Mar. On the poster this shows as calm open ground framing the narrow coastal town.

Cur Matinhos
For many people in Paraná, Matinhos means summer holidays, the drive down from Curitiba and the first view of the sea. A map of its shoreline is a quiet reminder of those weeks, and it works well in a hallway or a room that could use a little coastal air.
You can add your own title, a subtitle such as a family name or the year of a first trip, and a coordinates line. Choose from Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand; Blueprint and Sand both suit a beach town particularly well.
