Refinery tank fields
At Amuay and Cardón, rows of round storage tanks show up as dotted patterns, an unusual texture that makes this stretch of coastline instantly recognisable on the finished print.

The map
Punto Fijo lies on the western shore of the Paraguaná Peninsula, a flat, dry tongue of land that reaches north from the Venezuelan mainland into the Caribbean. On a map the town is a mostly rectilinear grid, its blocks spreading inland from the coast with little in the way of hills or rivers to bend them. Water on one side and open scrubland on the other give the drawing a clean edge.
The town grew quickly from the 1940s, when oil companies built refineries at Amuay and Cardón on either side of it. Together they now form the Paraguaná Refining Complex, one of the largest refining centres in the world. Their tank farms, jetties and service roads are the most distinctive geometry on the page: circles, straight lines and piers running out into the sea.
A Punto Fijo map poster keeps that mix of industry and ordinary neighbourhood streets in plain black ink. Residential districts, the avenues that carry traffic toward the interior of the peninsula and the line of the shore all sit at the same weight, so the print shows a working coastal town as it actually is, without any tourist gloss.
At Amuay and Cardón, rows of round storage tanks show up as dotted patterns, an unusual texture that makes this stretch of coastline instantly recognisable on the finished print.
The coast runs along the western side of town, a sharp line between built-up blocks and the open water of the Gulf of Venezuela, with piers reaching out from it.
Streets extend across level, dry ground in a largely regular pattern, giving the map a steady rhythm of blocks that thins out gradually toward the surrounding scrub.

Why Punto Fijo
For anyone who worked at the refineries, grew up in the town or crossed the isthmus to the peninsula, this map holds a very particular landscape: sea, flat land and industry laid out side by side, with nothing between them.
