Over the last 4 years my love for maps increased exponentially. I'm not sure what was the key driver behind this "recent" passion but the truth is that I admire more and more the fine art of displaying all kinds of data in a geographic space.

I wondered for years how the 510065600 km2 of Earth's surface area would look like in a map if our planet was in fact a cube.
Now I wonder no more...
