NewcastleGateshead is a collaged map compiled from regional namesakes taken from city maps worldwide. In the form of a generic folded map, the collage mimics the existing, familiar structure of NewcastleGateshead. Composed of all the Monktons, Wallsends, Heatons etc. across the globe, the collage layers various map-sections into a multiplex of Newcastle-Gateshead. Like any other city visitors map NewcastleGateshead provides a full map index and advertises things to do and see.

30,000 copies of the map were distributed across the UK.

A limited edition print is also available. Details are available on our Editions page.
