A GPS route on a phone beside a finished piece

01

Send us your place

The one you still talk about

Name your place, trail, ride or race route — or drop a map link, coordinates, or a GPX file from Strava, AllTrails, Garmin or Komoot. Anywhere in the world.

The small and medium pieces side by side

02

Pick your size

Desk-sized or shelf-sized

Base Model Small 14.5 × 14.5 cm 12.5 × 12.5 cm Medium 19.5 × 19.5 cm 17.5 × 17.5 cm Large Coming soon
Filament colours laid out for choosing

03

Choose your colours

Your terrain, your palette

Up to four terrain colours, then the base — body colour, contour lines and engraving text are all yours to pick. Pieces with water get a third land shade, so the terrain still reads right to the shoreline.

04

Puzzle or solid

Built to be taken apart

Puzzle pieces come apart and rebuild — the version people end up fiddling with on their desk. Solid is one fixed model, cleaner and better for travelling. Same terrain, same price.

05

Add your engraving

The bit that makes it personal

The base carries the place name, its coordinates, engraved contour lines, a date or a short message. All of it, or none of it — some people want the coordinates and nothing else.

from 5 reviews

an absolutely gorgeous little piece to commemorate a very important hike in my life! it looks so cute on my coffee table

Winnie

I recieved my order quickly and it was packaged nicely with cute little touches like a wax stamp seal and free sticker. I absolutely love that I got to choose the colours and whether it was a puzzle or not. I chose the puzzle and am glad I did, as well as the name of the hike and the coordinates. Kim is a pleasure to communicate with and Im so grateful she could capture such a special hike to me that I can keep in tiny form forever 💖

Linda

Outstanding customer service and care during the customisation process, with a fantastic final product. So happy with mine; 10/10 would recommend

Josh

This is so cool! Such a special piece to have been gifted by a special friend after starting my new job in the Beechworth-Yackandandah hills! I've been recommending this internationally!

The precision of the piece is awesome and I love feeling the terrain.

Emily

Quality and artwork was amazing, Kim did a wonderful job building my custom Mt Hotham piece.
Very easy to communicate with and was able to accommodate my ideas

Behind the pieces

A photo of a mountain never quite does it. You can't feel a ridge in a photo.

Every piece is somebody's place, printed from real elevation data in my garage in Melbourne. I'm the one who creates the custom orders, who prints it and who packs it.

Before you order

The things people ask first

What if my place is flat?

Send me the location before you order and I'll tell you honestly how it'll look. I'd rather talk you out of something than have you open the box and feel let down.

Will a long route look as dramatic as a single mountain?

Not quite — it covers twenty times the ground, so the terrain is naturally shallower. I push the elevation to its maximum on long routes to keep the ridgelines readable.

How long until it arrives?

Everything is made to order, so nothing sits in a box waiting. Allow up to 15 business days once we've confirmed your design, plus postage.
