I was commissioned by Addmark to develop an illustrated map of Walcheren, Zeeland, for Veldehof. The challenge was to develop a geographic area into an engaging visual experience that could communicate places, landmarks, landscapes, and local activities in a way that feels approachable and memorable.
I developed a custom illustrated landscape combining recognizable towns and architecture with coastal elements, beaches, roads, waterways, windmills, nature, wildlife, and recreational activities. Each element was individually illustrated and arranged to create a cohesive visual journey across the region.
Rather than aiming for strict cartographic accuracy, the map uses simplified geography and illustrated storytelling to make the region easier and more enjoyable to explore.
The final illustration was created for Veldehof, a destination in Zeeland, and brings together the surrounding area into a single visual map that can be used as both an informative guide and a piece of destination-focused artwork.
The result is a map designed to make people curious about the region and encourage them to explore what is around Veldehof.
