Transform a meaningful place into elegant layered map artwork, created from real geographic data and presented in a display-ready frame. Whether it is a home town, favourite travel destination, wedding venue, business location, or somewhere filled with personal memories, each custom map is designed specifically for you.

Crafted from multiple layers of professional illustration board, each artwork combines accurate cartography with subtle depth and clean, modern presentation. Available in both A6 and A4 framed editions, every map is individually designed before production begins.

How Ordering Works

  1. Decide where the map will be displayed. A6 is ideal for desks, shelves, and smaller spaces, while A4 creates a larger wall display.
  2. Send a screenshot from Google Maps or Apple Maps showing the area you would like transformed into map artwork.
  3. I will create a digital mock-up based on your chosen location and send it to you for approval.
  4. Once you are completely happy with the design, production of the final artwork will begin.

Layered Construction

  • Top layer: Roads and key transport routes in slate grey
  • Middle layer: Land in soft ivory white with a subtle textured finish
  • Base layer: Water in a light blue tone

Each layer is cut from 1.5 mm professional illustration board, creating a distinctive relief effect and exceptional rigidity compared to traditional paper prints.

Frame Details

  • Available in A6 and A4 sizes
  • Black frame included
  • Bevel-cut window mount (A4 edition)
  • Suitable for display on a desk, shelf, or wall

Designed and made in Japan, each piece combines craftsmanship and accurate map data to create distinctive custom city map wall art.
