Buildings of Melbourne

A large scale figure-ground diagram, showing all buildings of Melbourne in mesmerizing detail. It looks great from far away, where you can spot the structure of the city, as well as close by, where you can immerse yourself in the urban fabric and search for well-known buildings.

This map comes as a high-resolution .pdf file, tailored for large prints in 100x75cm with 300 dpi resolution. But of, course it works just as well as a wallpaper or whatever you have in mind.

A second layout is included in the download, in case you prefer the map in true north orientation.

The product is sold under the CC-BY-NC 4.0 license, which means you can use and modify the map for any non-commercial purposes as long as you give credit. Commercial use, including resale is not allowed, though (license details).

This map is made with data from Overture Maps, which is made available at overturemaps.org under the Open Database License (ODbL) and itself uses data by OpenStreetMap, Microsoft, ESRI community maps, Google and USGS.
