Push the roles further apart than feels comfortable. # - Roughly 1900 years apart. Keep one of them recognisably period rather than letting both drift into the middle. # Cautions carried from each entry # - Hatsusaburō Panoramic Map: Pushing curve and exaggeration until the order of the route breaks gives a map that is fun to look at and useless on the ground. # - Portolan Chart: Drawing rhumb lines as pattern while ignoring how they answer the roses gives ornament that no longer looks like an instrument of navigation. # Design specs: https://indexstyle.org/styles/panoramic-map/design.md · https://indexstyle.org/styles/portolan-chart/design.md
