The map
Stockholm is built on fourteen islands at the point where Lake Mälaren drains into Saltsjön, an inlet of the Baltic Sea. On the map the city appears as a cluster of land fragments linked by dozens of bridges, with open water weaving between them. Gamla stan, the old town, sits on a small central island, its medieval lanes a dense tangle among straighter modern streets.
North of the old town, Norrmalm and Östermalm follow broad, regular grids laid out in the nineteenth century. To the south, Södermalm rises on high cliffs above the water, while Djurgården to the east is largely parkland. The city hosts the Nobel Prize ceremony every December, and beyond it an archipelago of tens of thousands of islands stretches toward the open sea.
A Stockholm map poster is defined by the interplay of land and water. Islands, bays and channels give the composition an unusual rhythm, and the contrast between medieval lanes, grand avenues and open parkland makes it one of the most graphically satisfying capitals to frame.

A large southern island with steep shorelines and a regular street grid on top. Its outline and bridges frame the city's southern edge clearly.
An island east of the centre given over mostly to parkland and museums. On the poster it opens as a calm, sparse space among the waterways.

Why Stockholm
Stockholm is a city of distinct neighbourhoods, each tied to its own island. Former residents, exchange students and couples who met there often want a map that shows where their story happened, and the city's shape makes that map instantly recognisable.
Personalise it with your own title, subtitle and date, or keep the coordinates line as it is. Pick from Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint and Sand; Blueprint suits the waterways particularly well. HD files are $9, and printed posters ship from partners in over 30 countries.
