Transport for London (TfL) has unveiled a new cover for its pocket tube maps, inspiring Londoners to rethink their perceptions of the world. The stunning design is a prime example of what makes up some of the most inspiring infographics, balancing graphic artistry with thought-provoking, yet informative design.

The humble pocket map has become a tourist staple, but often it's unnoticed and unappreciated by the London local. An intricate reminder of the interconnectedness of the city and its inhabitants, the new pocket map cover is a perfect blend of old-school artistic technique and contemporary design that sparks nostalgia and intrigue.
