City Map Photo Frame
Where it all happened — pressed in foil, not printed.
Pick the occasion, we'll help you nail it.
Same gift, different stories. Here's what customers actually order for each kind of occasion.
Anniversary
Three small city maps in a row with the dates underneath. Gold foil on black velvet card reads especially well for anniversary years.
Wedding gift
The city the couple married in, foiled large as a statement piece. Pick the frame that suits their flat — Wood for warm interiors, Black for minimalist.
New home / housewarming
The street they've just moved to. Hangs from day one and welcomes every visitor with a quiet 'this is home now'.
Travel memory
A city you explored together — Tokyo, London, Bali — with a strip of your own photos below. The foil captures the streets exactly as they were when you walked them.
Long-distance couples
Three cities side by side: your city, their city, the city you first met. A quiet way to make the distance feel like a shared geography.
In memory
A city map of where they lived or were happiest, paired with a favourite photo. The foil-pressed detail stays sharp for years on the velvet card.
From your photo to a finished piece.
Every step handled in Singapore. Upload, preview, approve, ship. No surprises.
Pick a layout
Four layouts: Personalised Love Story Map (one large city map — housewarmings and travel memories), Custom Places We Love (three small maps with dates — Met / Engaged / Married, made for anniversaries), Our Adventure Photo Map (one city map above a strip of your photos), or Custom Couple Memory Map (one city map beside a single photo).
Pick your frame + foil colour
Four frame options — Black, White, Wood or Metallic Gold — and three foil colours: Gold, Rose Gold or Silver. The most-ordered combo is Gold foil on a Black frame; Silver foil on a White frame is the clean, modern pick.
Type your city + dates
Type the city or address — e.g. "Singapore", "Tokyo", "London" — and the map renders automatically from OpenStreetMap data, centred there. Drag the pin to fine-tune the exact spot, then add your names, a date or a caption. For Custom Places We Love, set all three cities and their dates.

Everything worth knowing,
before you order a city map print.
A city map print is four decisions stacked — which layout, which foil colour, which frame, and where on the wall. The foil-pressed map on 300GSM black velvet card stays sharp for years; the choices around it decide whether it lands as a thoughtful gift or generic wall art.
Why foil-press, not print — and what the black velvet card does for it.
A printed map sits flat and fades. A foil-pressed map has actual metallic shine — gold, rose gold or silver catches light from different angles, the way a watch face does on a wrist. That is the difference between a poster and a piece of art.
The card matters too. 300GSM black velvet card is thick, soft to the touch and deeply matte. The foil pops against the velvet black because there's almost no glare from the card itself — only the foil reflects. Glossy paper would muddy the contrast.
Four layouts — pick by the story you're telling.
Personalised Love Story Map is the big-statement layout — one city map filling the frame. Most ordered for housewarmings and travel memories: pick it when one place should dominate.
Custom Places We Love is the timeline — three small maps in a row with dates. Made for anniversaries (Met / Engaged / Married) and long-distance couples (your city / their city / the city you met).
Custom Couple Memory Map is the romantic pick — one city map beside a single photo (your first flat, where you proposed). Our Adventure Photo Map combines both: a city map up top with a strip of your photos below — for when the city and the photos both matter.
Foil colour and frame go together — most pair badly, two pair well.
Gold foil on a Black frame is the most-ordered combo for a reason — gold-on-black is the classic foiled-art look and reads expensive on almost any wall. Silver foil on a White frame is the modern minimalist pick — at home in white-paint flats and Scandi interiors.
Rose Gold foil suits softer interiors (warm walls, oak floors) and works with either Wood or Metallic Gold frames. Avoid silver foil with a metallic gold frame (too much shine competing), or rose gold foil with a black frame (the warm-cool clash mutes both).
Where it earns its place — made to read from across the room.
Framed, it reads as a single visual object from across the room — bigger than a photo frame, made to be the thing a guest notices first. Best spots: above a TV console, on a bedroom feature wall, or alongside other framed pieces in a small gallery cluster.
Keep it out of direct sun — foil and velvet card fade with years of full sun — and off bathroom or kitchen walls, where humidity warps the velvet card over time. Living room, bedroom, hallway, study — all fine.
Good questions.
How accurate is the city map?
Can I pick which part of the city shows?
What foil colour suits my frame?
How long does production take?
Can I add a date or name across the map?
