Kick-ass Umeda Shopping Map

13th Jun 2007 by Ian · 3 Comments

Found this reading my friend Daniel’s blog. It’s a B2 sized full colour shopping map of the underground area in Umeda. If you know about the area, you’ll know that there is a labyrinth of shops and malls down there. There are some gems of shops, and it is perfect for shopping during the rainy season :) Daniel’s company Mojoworks art-directed and produced the map.

Unfortunately, the map is only available to guests staying in the major hotels in Umeda. If you’re one of the lucky ones, don’t forget to ask.

    There isn’t one available as far as I am aware. I asked Daniel about the map, he said that “the powers that be” decided that the map is only for the patrons of the hotels. Oh well…
