Design Your Collage

Four places, one print

A multi-location map poster holds two, three or four places side by side. Each panel is its own map with its own location, its own colour style and its own marker, or it can hold one of your own photographs instead.

Under each panel is a caption you write, so a wall of maps reads as a sequence rather than a set. A title runs across the top. It is the format people reach for when one place is not enough: a relationship, a family, a decade.

What people put in the panels

Four moments in order is the most common arrangement.

Where we met, first date, where she said yes, where we married
Every city a couple has lived in together
Four generations of family hometowns
The places a child has lived before starting school
Four countries from one long trip
Three maps and one photograph from the day
A parents' city, a couple's city, and the one in between
Four hospitals, campuses or venues behind a career

Common questions about multi-location map prints

How many places can go on one poster?

Two, three or four. Each panel is independent, so the locations, colours and markers can all differ, and any panel can hold a photograph instead of a map.

Can I use my own photos?

Yes. Any panel accepts a JPG or PNG. The editor checks the photo against the size it will print at and tells you if it is too small before you order, rather than letting you find out on the wall.

Can each map have a different style?

Yes. Every panel carries its own colour style and its own marker, while the paper colour behind them stays consistent across the whole poster.

What do the captions under each map say?

Whatever you write. Most people use a short phrase like "where we met" or a place name. Leave them blank and the captions come off the poster entirely.

Is this a good anniversary or wedding gift?

It is the most common reason people order one. Four panels covering how a relationship unfolded is a specific gift in a way a single map is not, and captions let you tell the story in your own words.
