The reservoir
The dam impounds a huge lake whose shoreline follows old river valleys, creating a complex branching outline that is striking at wider map framings.

The map
About this Três Marias map poster
Três Marias exists largely because of water. The town grew up alongside the Três Marias dam, built on the São Francisco River in the mid-twentieth century, which holds back one of the largest reservoirs in Brazil. On a map, the lake dominates everything: long flooded valleys reach out in fingers across the cerrado, and the town sits near the dam at its northern end.
The street plan reflects its origins as a planned settlement tied to a major infrastructure project. Blocks are laid out in a fairly regular pattern, with main avenues leading toward the river and the dam. Below the barrier, the São Francisco resumes its course north, a single river line leaving the enormous reservoir behind.
A Três Marias map poster works on two scales. Close in, it shows the orderly grid of a small interior town; pulled back, it becomes a study of the reservoir, its irregular shoreline branching into dozens of inlets. Either way, the contrast between built form and open water makes a strong black-and-white composition.

Três Marias dam
The barrier across the São Francisco marks the point where the reservoir ends and the river continues north, a clear hinge between still water and flowing channel.
Planned town grid
The town's regular blocks and straight avenues reflect its growth around the dam project, giving the centre a tidy, legible layout on the poster.
