Underskin: The Human Subway Map

Sam Loman has taken the subway map infographic style to the human body.  Underskin is an infographic that traces the routes of eight different systems within the body (Digestive, Respiratory, Arterial, etc.), and highlights the major connection points.

You can see Sam’s work on just-sam.com, but the image there is low resolution.  She sent me the image above so you could see the high-resolution details.  Thanks Sam!

Found on VizWorld and Information Aesthetics.

Really cool map!!! The ingenious image, the underground, skeleton, card... Unusual and grasping infographic!

Beautiful work! It is possible to study the map of the underground and is better to learn anatomy of the human! Thanks!

This would work a lot better in Johnston, or even Gill Sans, instead of whatever god-awful typeface is being used there. The type is the most identifiable thing about the London Underground design. Otherwise, really nice work.
