Earth Biomes

Earth Biomes is an illustrated wall map that lets kids admire the living planet at arm’s length. Three globes line up so continents continue across them, with the bottom globe flipped to reveal the South Pole. Colors wash across the land to mark different biomes—rainforests, deserts, tundras, and more—while ocean blues darken to show where the water runs deep.

A legend of plant silhouettes and tiny “recipes” of thermometers and raindrops show how temperature and rainfall combine to shape each landscape. As kids explore the poster, patterns emerge: green belts hugging the equator, deserts hiding in the rain shadows of mountains, icy crowns at the poles. It’s a portrait of Earth that shows how landforms, water, and climate weave together to make our home.

Hanging recommendation: This product is a rolled poster and does not include a hanger or frame.

Data and design provenance
Biome types and borders shown are adapted, including reduced and simplified, from the World Wildlife Fund’s major habitat types from its terrestrial ecosystems dataset. Sea-depth bathymetry data is adapted from GEBCO Compilation Group (2024) GEBCO 2024 Grid (doi:10.5285/1c44ce99-0a0d-5f4f-e063-7086abc0ea0f). The color palette was inspired by “Vegetationszonen der Erde” (Leipzig, 1930) by Otto Neurath.
