Your place, made into a wooden map
Some places mean more than a pin on a map.
It might be the city you grew up in, the neighbourhood where you first lived together, a family hometown, the place you got married, a favourite island, or somewhere you never want to forget.
Tell us the location, and we’ll turn it into a custom layered wooden map, designed and made especially for you in our Haarlem studio.
Made from your location
Your map doesn’t need to be a major city. We can create designs from:
- Cities, towns and villages
- Neighbourhoods and hometowns
- Islands and coastlines
- Lakes and river areas
- Wedding and engagement locations
- Favourite travel destinations
- Places connected to family, study, work or personal memories
You can send us a city or place name, address, coordinates, landmark, Google Maps link, or a short description of the area you would like to capture.
How your custom map is made
Every custom map starts as a new design.
We study the selected area and carefully adapt its streets, water and geographic details into a design suitable for laser cutting. The individual wooden layers are then precisely cut, assembled and finished by hand.
The layered construction creates real depth and subtle shadows, giving the map a tactile, architectural character that a printed map cannot reproduce.
Designed → Laser cut → Assembled by hand → Checked → Packed
Choose your finish
Choose the combination that works best with your interior:
Natural — warm, understated wood tones that highlight the material itself.
Black — a stronger, contemporary look with more contrast against the wall.
Your map is available in several sizes, from a compact piece for a shelf or gallery wall to a larger statement map.
Make it even more personal
Add a personal engraving to turn your map into something completely yours.
A date, names, coordinates or a short message can connect the map to the story behind the place — whether it marks your first home, where you met, a wedding, a memorable journey, or simply somewhere that feels like home.
A gift with a place behind it
A custom map works especially well when an ordinary gift doesn’t feel personal enough.
It can mark a new home, wedding, anniversary, birthday, move abroad, favourite journey or hometown — turning a meaningful location into something that can stay on the wall for years.
Before we make your map
After you place your order, we review the requested location to make sure it can be translated into a clean and detailed wooden design.
If the selected area is too large, too small, or needs clarification, we’ll contact you before production and help determine the best map area.
Because every custom location requires individual design preparation, we make sure the map area works before it goes into production.
