BB Map of Tairāwhiti the East Coast by API
When hanging on your wall, you’ll be reminded of…
The glory of Tairāwhiti, and spying the sun peeking over the horizon before anyone else, the rural landscapes, the endless waves, the endless interior hills and ranges, the coastal communities, the carved meeting houses and beautiful marae, the wilds of Raukumara and Te Urewera, the Waioeka Gorge with its endless turns, the sheep baa'ing, the hunters hunting, the surfers surfing, that thin line where the ocean meets the land, Mahia Peninsula, the pohutukawa-fringed Eastern Bay of Plenty, the mighty Maunga Hikurangi, the East Cape and the road trip gem that is State Highway 35, Lake Waikaremoana and the serenity of the beech forests, SH38 and its wilderness feelings, all the beautiful things - Out East.
Cartographer’s Notes:
This is a version of the very first BB Map, hand-drawn in Okitu and Makorori Beach ~ 2010. It was created as a visual representation of what the Tairāwhiti region felt like to me, the places I explored, the people I met, the waves I surfed etc. It's a beautiful map and versions have been used to promote the region since 2010. It is typeset in BB Kotahitanga, a typeface I hand-crafted during that same period, inspired by local character buildings.
