This Schematic of NYC Structures Shows the City’s Icons in Blueprint Style

April 14, 2015

Want to bring a little bit of the city into your home, but tired of the standard black-and-white photos of landmarks or graphic maps that can be found at every craft fair these days? Why not frame this lovely print called Splendid Structures of New York City? Based on Brooklyn-based Pop Chart Lab‘s popular print The Schematic of Structures, this new design takes iconic NYC structures like the Statue of Liberty and One World Trade Center, along with local landmarks such as the Unisphere and Wyckoff House, and presents them in a hand-illustrated, blueprint-like style.

Each structure is drawn to scale and includes a fact list of its location, height, year of construction, and architectural style. Pop Chart Lab notes that “using 100 lb. archival stock certified by The Forest Stewardship Council, this poster is pressed on an offset lithographic press with vegetable-based inks in Long Island City, New York.” You can grab an 18 x 24-inch copy here.
