About the Artist
Created by MORYARTY, Map of Barcelona 2 reflects the studio’s commitment to transforming urban landscapes into refined, contemporary wall art. Rather than relying on nostalgic travel imagery, MORYARTY emphasizes clarity, graphic strength, and a distinct sense of place in each design.
This piece exemplifies modern cartographic art, designed for interiors that value both sophistication and a personal connection to city life. It appeals to those who appreciate design-led decor and seek a city poster that remains timeless and understated.
The Artwork
Map of Barcelona 2 was conceived as a visual meditation on how cities are experienced through daily movement—tracing familiar routes, traversing neighborhoods, and orienting oneself by the coastline. By merging a detailed street plan with a stylized skyline, the artwork becomes both a navigational tool and a portrait of Barcelona’s unique identity.
Released in 2019, this print aligns with a contemporary desire for meaningful, place-based wall decor that feels personal yet modern. For those with a connection to Barcelona, it serves as a subtle landmark within the Barcelona collection.
Style & Characteristics
The print features a crisp palette of saturated blue and clean white, evoking Mediterranean light and the precision of a blueprint. Fine, intricate linework maps out the city’s streets in geometric detail, while generous white space lends the composition a sense of calm and openness.
The inclusion of a simplified skyline grounds the map as decorative art, balancing architectural structure with visual restraint. For similar aesthetics, explore blue wall art and minimalist posters.
In Interior Design
This Barcelona map poster is well-suited for gallery walls, entryways, or home offices where travel memories and design sensibility intersect. Its cool blue and white tones complement white walls, pale woods, concrete, chrome, and black accents.
It integrates seamlessly into coastal, Scandinavian, or modernist interiors, offering structure without overwhelming the space. Pair it with other cartographic works from the maps collection to create a cohesive, city-inspired art display.
