Atelier Isohypse prints in a chalet

The landscape and its map

Art prints of the mountains and the coast.

Discover the prints

The landscape you see, and the one you walk

From a place, you keep an image: light on a ridge, the reflection in a lake, a cliff facing the sea. And you keep a route: the pass you crossed, the little street, the trail you followed.

Each print brings the two together. Below, the illustration, in the style of an oil painting and created digitally. Above, the IGN map of the same place (France’s national survey map), carrying the landscape on where the eye stops.

Take a closer look

The map isn’t decoration. Every contour line, every stream, every peak and its altitude comes from IGN survey data, for the exact place shown.

Move over the print to follow the trails: this is the level of detail you’ll find on the print itself.

Born on the trails

Atelier Isohypse grew out of long mountain walks with my dog, and a habit: unfolding the map before every outing to read the terrain.

That is where the idea came from: bringing together, on a single print, the view you remember and the map of the place.
