The map
About this Messaad map poster
Messaad lies in Djelfa province in central Algeria, south of the provincial capital, in the high steppe where the Saharan Atlas gives way to desert. On a map the town is a dense, well-defined block of streets surrounded by open land, with only a few roads leading away across the plain toward neighbouring settlements.
The region has long been a place of pastoral life and of trade between the north and the Sahara, and the town serves the surrounding area as a market and administrative centre. The remains of a Roman frontier fort, known as Castellum Dimmidi, lie near the town and mark one of the southernmost Roman outposts in the region.
A Messaad map poster is defined by contrast. The town's closely packed streets form a strong, compact shape, and around them the map is almost empty, which makes the settlement stand out sharply in black and white. It reads as a portrait of a place shaped by open land, where each road leading out carries weight.

Roads across the steppe
A handful of roads leave the town in straight or gently curving lines, the only strong marks across the open land beyond the built-up area.
Open arid land
Large empty areas surround the town on every side, which in print act as a wide margin and give the composition a calm, spacious feel.
