Customise!

We are all about creating great prints so feel free ot customise your new Map Prints..

You can choose to customise most of our maps.  We set the centre of the map based on your postal code (for city maps or address for cropped maps) and you can request the placement of icons in various locations such as your home to signify your address or love heart to let people know where you met you significant other.  Additionally you can customise the size and colour of our customisable maps.

We will send you a proof of the map just to make sure that everything is in the right place and it is perfect.  Once you give us the go-ahead, well print the approved version and have it on it’s way to you. We are all about creating big, bold and beautiful prints so feel free to customise your new Map Prints knowing they will look just as great in years to come as they do when you receive them.

Map Quality

Fine text and lines on maps means that print quality is important.

We are avid cartographic admirers.  And so is just about everyone we speak with.  We’ve heard about the pitfalls of buying intricate works online from other Companies.  Maps reproduction requires quality equipment and experienced staff to reproduce.  The nice thing is that although your prints are the highest quality online, you art is very affordable.    So it’s nice to know that we design all our work to be as crisp and legible as the day is was written (often with quill pen back when some of these works were first created). 

Selection

Our retro maps date back to mid last century and brandish those great retro hues and mild wear characteristics that you want from a great retro print.  We only sourced maps guaranteed to have that “Wow”, factor.  Let’s face it – it’s always just a little bit awesome when your friends admire your taste. The thing is that some of our brighter coloured maps (Arlington or Sulphur colour for example) are great Vintage maps or modern cartography, each has its appeal and based on your setting and design.  We have amassed a collection that spans these designs with locations and towns from all places in this big brown land we call Oz and further afield – Like Tassie!  Actually we have maps dated yesterday and we also carry map prints dating right back to couple of hundred years ago.  So you should be able to find that perfect art map for your home – or as a great gift.   

If you have a contemporary decor you can order one of our NEON Maps, printed on a delicious pearlescent print media that has stunning commanding colours.  These maps come in 9 colours including minimalist monochromatic to bold Fuchsia and Neon Blue tones.  

Our retro maps date back to mid last century Circa 1920’s – 1960’s and brandish those great retro hues and mild wear characteristics that you want from a great retro print.  We only sourced maps guaranteed to have that “Wow”, factor.   Let’s face it – it’s always just a little bit awesome when your friends admire your taste.

At the other end of the spectrum, we have our Vintage maps, some of which date back to the 1800’s.  STOP!  Don’t be thinking that we’re talking about those old, dark, stained, blurry maps you see online.  We’re talking about beautifully restored, bright maps created by the world’s best cartographers coupled with our high end printing and design.  Here is an example of a beautiful French map from 200 or so years ago.  Great in a contemporary or French provincial setting.  Quality never goes out of style.

We Love Maps

Are you a lover of cartography too?  Maps have always been more than just a way to convey graphic information.  Beautifully designed maps are nothing short of Art and evoke memories of places we have been and people we have met along the way.  They can beckon us to return to countries and places we have visited and loved or inspire us to go places yet undiscovered.  Maps can be a talking point upon which we can reminisce with a friend about funny anecdotes during a gap year in Europe or about our remind us of a little village in on a tropical island when we were welcomed by the locals.  Maps remind us of the geographical trajectory of our lives, acquaintances and experiences. And, of course, maps can bestow upon us a pride of place and still be objects of Beauty and Art (both word should always be capitalised) with which we can adorn our walls and feel as though the far flung places of the world and people we love are just a little bit closer.  All that being said – They also just look great!
