About the Artist
Created by MORYARTY, this contemporary city map poster reflects the studio’s dedication to clarity and refined graphic design. MORYARTY approaches mapmaking as a way to capture the spirit of a place, transforming urban geography into collectible art that resonates with personal memories and aspirations.
Rather than serving as mere navigational tools, these maps become visual narratives—reminders of journeys taken or destinations dreamed of. For those who appreciate understated minimalist posters and thoughtful design, this piece is a modern homage to the enduring allure of city maps.
The Artwork
The Hong Kong Minimalist Map was conceived as a tribute to the city’s dynamic character, distilling its complexity into a calm, graphic portrait. The artwork captures Hong Kong’s unique position as a crossroads of harbor, neighborhoods, and iconic skyline, inviting viewers to reflect on their own connections to the city.
This piece fits seamlessly into the tradition of map prints that celebrate urban identity through design. Whether commemorating a personal chapter or inspiring future travels, it transforms the city’s intricate layout into a meaningful visual keepsake.
Style & Characteristics
The composition features a detailed network of Hong Kong’s streets paired with a simplified skyline silhouette. Fine, crisp linework and balanced negative space create a sense of order and modernity, echoing principles of modernist graphic design.
A soothing blue and white palette establishes a tranquil, airy mood, evoking both the city’s coastal setting and its urban energy. The restrained color scheme lends the poster a timeless, slightly nostalgic quality, while maintaining a distinctly contemporary feel.
In Interior Design
This Hong Kong map poster is ideal for living rooms, offices, bedrooms, or hallways where a focused yet understated statement piece is desired. Its minimalist aesthetic complements Scandinavian, Japandi, and modern interiors, and it pairs well with gallery walls featuring typography, photography, or architectural themes.
For a harmonious look, combine it with white or pale wood furnishings and accents from the blue collection. A simple selection from frames enhances its clean, graphic presence.
