Deep ravines cut through the city and remain largely unbuilt. On the map, they look like branching empty channels that divide one neighbourhood from the next.

The map
Mixco lies on the western side of the Guatemala City metropolitan area, rising from the valley toward the mountains. Its terrain is steep and broken by deep ravines, called barrancos, which the city has grown around. As a result, the streets follow the ridges in long, twisting lines, and the ravines appear on the map as winding blank channels.
The area was settled long before the Spanish arrived, and the old town centre keeps the traditional arrangement of a church and plaza. Around it, newer residential districts and colonias spread along the ridges. Major roads link Mixco to the capital to the east, and the boundary between the two cities is hard to see in the built fabric.
A Mixco map poster is a study in terrain. The street patterns change from one ridge to the next, and the ravines give the design a strong organic rhythm. It is a good map for people from the city or for anyone who wants a poster shaped by the land itself.
Deep ravines cut through the city and remain largely unbuilt. On the map, they look like branching empty channels that divide one neighbourhood from the next.
Many roads follow the tops of the ridges, curving with the terrain. This creates long, winding lines instead of a regular grid.
The historic centre keeps a compact, traditional layout around its church and square. It is the most regular part of an otherwise flowing map.

Why Mixco
Mixco is home to many families in the capital region, and its map shows the terrain they climb every day. The ravines and ridges give the print a natural, almost topographic look.
