Vetiver, a fresh style for TileMill2

Vetiver is a clean, fresh map style emphasizing tasteful textures, natural building shadows and the soft, warm glow of the sun.

It was originally designed as a campus map of the Pennsylvania State University for the BDSS homepage.

Things that need doing:

• Adjust street styles to add a recessed appearance
• Give water a soft texture, north-west bevel
• Set type in a more distinct typeface + tweak street label repetitions
• Standardize appearance across scale
• Broaden use for general, large scale reference mapping
