The map

About this Samfya map poster

Samfya sits on the western shore of Lake Bangweulu in Zambia's Luapula Province, and from above the lake dominates the view. The shoreline runs in a long curve of beach. The town's roads stay a short distance back from it in a loose pattern of streets and tracks that serves houses, markets and landing places for fishing boats.

Inland the map thins quickly into woodland and farmland crossed by a few main roads that connect to other towns in the province. That makes the Samfya map poster unusually open, with a wide stretch of water on one side and a light scatter of streets on the other. The shoreline between them is the strongest line on the page.

Lake Bangweulu is a large, shallow lake edged by wide swamps, and fishing is central to life along its shores. Samfya is known for white-sand beaches, which are unusual so far inland. The town is also a starting point for boat trips to the inhabited islands out on the lake.

01

Lake Bangweulu shore

The curving western shore of the lake runs along the town, and open water fills much of the composition. The result is a spacious, minimal image.

02

Beachfront edge

A strip of sandy beach separates the town from the water. On the poster it appears as a clean edge between the streets and the lake.

03

Inland roads

A few main roads lead away from the lakeshore through woodland and farmland. They connect Samfya with the rest of Luapula Province and anchor the landward side of the map.

Why Samfya

A map that means something

A poster of Samfya suits anyone with ties to Luapula or memories of time on Lake Bangweulu. Its large areas of empty water give it a spare, restful quality, and it works well in rooms that call for something quiet on the wall.

The title, subtitle and coordinates line can be changed to mark a name, a place or a date. There are five styles, from Classic black & white to Noir, Paper, Blueprint and Sand. Order digital HD files for $9, or a printed poster on matte paper with an optional wooden frame.
