Tube style walking maps connecting parks & open spaces
The Greenground Map project reimagines cities through green and blue infrastructure by creating macro-scale walking maps that encourage walking and cycling along parks, rivers, and canals. Launched in spring 2019 by graphic designer Helen Ilus, the project began with a tube-style map connecting urban green spaces and quickly gained public support through collaborative input. Since then, Helen has produced both independent and commissioned maps in partnership with charities and councils, reaching over 100,000 viewers and earning positive feedback from the public and specialists. The maps have been widely featured in the media and are currently sold at Stanfords Map and Travel Bookshop in London.

Helen Ilus put a new twist on London mapping with her delightful โGreengroundMapโ, a map of Londonโs green spaces and how best to navigate between them done in the style of the tube map. โ Steven Feldman, GeoMob Podcast
Weโve been a bit slow to get our hands on a copy of @HelenIlus London Greenground Map but oh, isnโt it wonderful. What a delight! โ London Ramblers on TwitterI nabbed one of these for my father in lawโs birthday last year โ itโs totally changed how he sees his home territory of London. Really wonderful work by Helen.
