Sketching the city: Flagey neighborhood map

Mapping the city is not an easy task. Our contributor Zsofi came up with an interesting idea – to draw maps of different neighborhoods of Brussels.  We start with Flagey, one of urban hotspots, often buzzing with people but also offering places to relax and enjoy.

What do you think about Flagey? What are your favourite places in the neighborhood? Feel free to leave us a comment on our Facebook or Instagram page! 🙂

Also, if you have ideas for new maps and illustrations, you can get in touch with us or Zsofi directly. In case you missed it, check our map with cool coffee spots in Brussels.

Zsofi Lang (@zldrawings) is an illustrator based in Brussels. She likes to visualize complex ideas in simple ways, mostly in the form of hand-drawn infographics, maps, or live drawing at conferences. She loves architecture, history and little-known facts about Brussels, so if you have any, send them her way. You can learn more about her at her website.
