This boat show was called the Yacht and Brokerage Show in Miami Beach and later changed to Yachts Miami Beach and eventually The Miami Yacht Show. It is not to be confused with the Miami International Boat Show which is an entirely different thing. I created maps for this show from 2001 to 2018. I continue to make maps for the show since it moved to downtown Miami but I have posted those maps separately.
I created the illustrated map for the Yacht and Brokerage Show in Miami Beach for several consecutive years now. I started with a 2D isometric illustration technique. In 2013 I switched to 3D software to illustrate the map, and each year I changed the treatment to varying degrees. The placement of docks and boats as well as the key changes every year. The map is used in the boat show program and sometimes by media outlets and magazines. Below you can see previous year’s maps for comparison. If you scroll further down you can also see some other related maps I revise and/or create every year.
Also among the body of work are illustrations and designs for “You Are Here” signs.
I also designed the font used in some versions
