Tbilisi Metro Map

Grid layout

The scheme is based on a hexagonal grid (which, for example, Kostya Konovalov used for his scheme). Hexagons sound cooler and look more interesting than the standard 45° Beck grid. And besides, I rotated the hexagons in such a way that there are no horizontals in the scheme (it is extremely inconvenient to arrange stations horizontally).

The hexagon formed the basis for the shape of the stations, interchanges, and terminals, and ultimately the entire map.

As the metro system itself is represented by only two lines and 23 stations, it made sense to fill it with other information. I marked the conditional boundaries of more or less central areas, added a railway, as well as more exotic tourist transport – cable cars and funiculars. Beautiful icons were needed for all of this.

The hexagonal version can be used, but if necessary, the scheme can be easily adapted to a rectangular format.

Line maps

The Akhmeteli-Varketili line turned out to be dense, with more stations and three interchange hubs with railways and buses. Compared to it, the linear diagram of the Saburtalo line looks somewhat empty.

And where would we be without a dark version 😎
