Custom world map wall murals
A world map can be a travel daydream, a graphic centrepiece or a useful way to talk about places. Vintage designs evoke old atlases, simplified maps focus on continental shapes, and colourful illustrations invite a more playful reading. Your chosen map is printed to your wall measurements on textured matte 6 mil material with a non-reflective finish.
More about this collection
The language, labels and level of detail belong to the selected artwork, so look closely at what each map actually shows. Choose the design’s purpose before choosing its size: decoration and geographical reference are not always the same thing. Your mural is made to your wall measurements, with careful attention to the crop. In a classroom or office, also check that names remain legible and the information suits the intended use.
Decorative map or geographical reference?
An artistic map is not automatically an up-to-date atlas. Review place names, borders and other labels before using it for teaching or presentations. A historical map may be an excellent decorative choice precisely because it records an earlier view of the world.
Keep the places that matter within the crop
World maps are often much wider than they are tall. A narrow wall may require trimming the sides, so review the whole composition rather than centring on one continent alone. Allow for furniture that could conceal islands or labels along the lower edge.
Match label size to viewing distance
Fine lettering matters more beside a desk than across a large entrance hall. For a map that people will read closely, image resolution and print scale both matter. If supplying your own file, check that small names remain clear at the requested size.
Your questions — World maps
Which world map works well in an office?
A restrained graphic map or vintage design can suit a professional setting. If it will be used to locate destinations, prioritise readable names as well as appearance.
Are the map labels always in English?
No. Labels are part of the artwork. Using the English website does not translate words printed inside the selected image.
Can a world map be made to my wall dimensions?
Yes. Review the crop carefully because a wall with different proportions may require parts of the map’s edges to be trimmed.
Can I use a map mural in a school?
It can work as decoration or a visual aid. Check the accuracy, date and readability of the particular design against the planned learning activity.
Can I upload my own map?
You can submit a file you are entitled to reproduce. It needs sufficient detail for the final wall size, particularly where there is small text.
