This projection is based on the equirectangular projection, meaning that all areas between earth’s 360 meridians and 180 latitude circles are displayed as squares equal in size. But, in reality, the corresponding area near the equator is different to one near one of the poles (at the poles, it’s actually triangles). The Schwochow-Blickle Projection shows this fact with the squares getting smaller towards the poles, which are arranged on two lines parallel to the equator at the top and the bottom.

This was generated with a simple word map that was converted to a PDF with Adobe FlashBuilder and AlivePDF. No manual aligning and/or scaling done here!

Without the space in between the squares, one gets this picture:
