Map Wallpaper

For some reason I have always been enamored with maps...I think that they are so interesting as well as beautiful.  I love looking at large atlas books, so a room covered in maps is a dream come true! Lately I have run across images of people using large maps or combinations of small different maps to cover their walls.  I used to not be a fan of wallpaper, but I think that the map wallpaper is sophisticated, intellectual, and stunning. Someday I would love to have a small sitting room covered in maps.
