OUR WORLD MAPS
They are all Awesome Maps, but we classify our products into 4 categories:
Our ACTIVITY MAPS feature the best spots and locations for your favorite sports activities like diving, hiking and skiing.
They‘re all 100% hand-illustrated. Our TRAVEL & SCRATCH MAPS are primarily travel related – think 100 things to do
before you die. Some are meant to be modified and customized with own travels, memories and annotations using
pens and stickers. Our MINIMALIST MAPS are simply stunning and designed for display. And our FOLDABLE MAPS are
folded down to a compact size and super lightweight so they can be taken on trips.

Twenty years from now you will be more
disappointed by the things you didn’t do
than by the ones you did do.
So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from
the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in
your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
– Mark Twain –
