The map
Romulus lies in Wayne County, southwest of Detroit, and its map is shaped above all by Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport, which occupies a large part of the city's northern area. The runways form a set of long, parallel lines that no other feature in the region can match, and roads, rail lines and industrial parks have arranged themselves around them.
Beyond the airport, Romulus follows the survey grid common across southeast Michigan: straight roads running in a regular pattern, with neighbourhoods, remnants of farmland and wooded patches filling the squares between them. Interstate 94 and Interstate 275 cross the area, and a few small creeks cut across the otherwise flat terrain.
A Romulus map poster is one of the more unusual designs in the region: part airport diagram, part Midwestern grid. For pilots, airline staff and frequent travellers, the pattern of runways and taxiways is instantly recognisable, while residents will find their own streets arranged neatly within the large squares around it.
Parallel runways and a web of taxiways fill the north of the city, creating a bold geometric block that dominates the whole composition.
Main roads follow the regular survey grid of southeast Michigan, dividing the city into large squares that give the map a clear structure.
Interstates 94 and 275 cut through the area, their long curves and interchanges standing out against the straight lines of the local roads.

Why Romulus
Romulus is a fitting choice for anyone whose working life revolves around the airport, from pilots and cabin crew to ground staff, as well as for the families who have lived here for generations. The map honours both sides of the city.
The title, subtitle and coordinates line can all be changed, so you might add a name, a hire date or a retirement year. Blueprint suits the runways well, though Classic black & white, Noir, Paper and Sand are also available.
