It cannot be denied: everyone loves a good map. And maps are what we do--detailed, sumptuous, bespoke illustrations that pull readers into your world. We take what you've imagined and make it real and we do it with style. Whether it's for your novel, your gaming group, a frame in your living room, a gift for a loved one... we are here to bring your imagination to life!
​
In classic black and white to resplendent color, our maps not only make stunning additions to your book, game, or wall, they are also unique works of art that are totally custom drawn, by hand. We do not use map generators or cheap shortcuts! Every map is totally unique, created in close collaboration with our clients, and will be a timeless piece you will treasure forever.

We take only a small number of map commissions each year; it is HIGHLY recommended that you book as early as possible to be sure you get a slot. Depending on the number of commissions ahead of you, turnaround time can vary from a few weeks to several months. Contact us for an estimated turnaround time for your project.
Mapmaking Process
1
After choosing your package and agreeing to the terms & conditions, please contact us to place your order. Maps take several weeks to complete and we are usually booked out several months. It's important to book far in advance of your publication date to be sure the map is ready in time.Once you've paid 50% of the total price, your commission will be booked and mapmaking can begin.
2
To begin work, we will need these things from you: 1) a rough sketch of your world, no matter how messy, is the most important resource we will use, 2) a written description of any elements not clear on the sketch, incl. climate info and architectural styles, 3) if intended for a novel: print specifications incl. trim, bleed, and gutter measurements.
