Introducing our unique collection of wood maps, a comprehensive project featuring 50 meticulously crafted city maps. Over the past 8 months, I've dedicated myself to designing these laser-cut city maps, starting with a standard size of 18"x18" while offering customizable options to fit your space perfectly.
Each piece in this collection is more than just a map; it's a three-dimensional work of art, with intricate layers representing water bodies, the natural landscape, and the urban street pattern. The craftsmanship extends to every detail, as each wood map is hand-painted and carefully set in a high-quality pinewood frame, ensuring that each piece is a unique artifact.
A special touch is added to every map, with the city's name elegantly inscribed in the lower left corner, grounding each piece in its geographical and cultural context. This collection is a sophisticated evolution from my previous Retro Posters Project, incorporating the thematic essence of traditional map posters into a fresh, innovative medium.
