Glossary | Globes | Design

Globe design can be divided into three separate categories: modern & futuristic, rustic & natural and classic & elegant.

More information:

Classic & elegant

Classic, elegant globes that look exactly how you would imagine a typical globe to be.

Modern & futuristic

Modern, futuristic globes rely on a map image in unusual colours, and on unconventional pedestals or meridians.

Rustic & natural

Globes with an antique map with parchment-coloured oceans, or a carved wooden foot, are categorised as rustic and natural.
