Soft cover. Condizione: Near Fine. 1st Edition. VanDam, Stephan (designer). London Unfolds; Paris Unfolds; Rome Unfolds. New York: ProDesign Inc. / World Unfolds Publishing Ltd., 1984. First Edition, First Printing. Original 1984 Europe Unfolds travel map set designed by Stephan VanDam for ProDesign Inc., featuring the innovative 'Unfolds' - patented format (U.S. Patent No. 4,502,711). Includes three laminated foldout maps: London Unfolds, Paris Unfolds, and Rome Unfolds, each listing hotels, restaurants, museums, galleries, nightlife, and cultural attractions. The striking black minimalist covers with diagonal-line design represent early examples of VanDam's influential modernist cartographic style that later evolved into his StreetSmart series. Published by World Unfolds Publishing Ltd., this is the inaugural 1984 issue (marked 'Patent Pending' and printed before the rebranded VanDam/StreetSmart editions). Maps are bright, clean, and fully functional, showing only light creasing at folds; housed in the original clear vinyl slipcase, lightly clouded but intact. A scarce complete tri-city set and an iconic artifact of 1980s graphic design and urban travel culture. Stephan VanDam (b. 1950) is a New York-based cartographer and designer known for his patented pop-out 'Unfolds' and StreetSmart maps, which fuse urban data with modernist clarity. His works are held in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) and the Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum.…
