The design is simple but poignant. Roads are color-coded and layered at scale, one on top of the other. Silhouettes correspond to the real configuration of the routes, so you get a good sense of not just size but of geography. The whole thing looks like a Georgia O’Keeffe flower -- which is probably the last thing that springs to mind when you think of endless tracts of asphalt in say, Atlanta, or Beijing.
