I love that it looks like the continents are holding hands. From Mental Floss, A More Accurate World Map Wins Prestigious Japanese Design Award:

“AuthaGraph faithfully represents all oceans [and] continents, including the neglected Antarctica,” according to the Good Design Awards, and provides “an advanced precise perspective of our planet.” No longer does Africa look the same size as North America, or Antarctica look like one of the biggest continents (it’s smaller than everything but Europe and Australia).
