Modern London Maps brings together more than 60 maps, exploring London through its transport networks, green spaces and pictorial cartography. Many come from The London Archives, with our contemporary maps joining this wider collection.

Our maps in the book

Urban Good is featured as a map contributor. We supplied artwork for our maps and helped Vincent explain them; the book’s overall design was not an Urban Good commission.

  • Central London Footways, first edition (2020) — created with London Living Streets, featured on the front cover and on pages 90–91.
  • London National Park City Map — featured on the back cover and on pages 88–89.

Vincent visited our Dalston studio a couple of times while preparing the book. We worked closely with him to explain the maps and supply high-quality artwork for reproduction.
