Mapiful. You probably had already seen them on instagram. The Mapiful maps are custom made, so each one is pretty unique. You see, you create your own map on the site, with your favorite city or place, and you can zoom in and zoom out in order to define the coordinates and the aesthetics.

So, i love the idea so much that i  decided to make mine about São Paulo because as you guys know is the city where i was born and it’s a place with a special meaning to me.
I don’t know about you, but i love maps since i was a child. I remember loving those old ones from the history’s class and later the paper ones that sadly have disappeared with the gps (i mean i love gps, but i do love old maps too). I mean, i used to stay there looking at the maps and discovering new places and countries that i had never heard about. For me that’s the magic thing about maps. They let you travel without going anywhere for real.

Probably that’s why i love Mapiful so much. Mapiful maps are a modern version of cartographic charts. Plus, they make any boring wall look immediately good.

As you folks may have see on the shots, i’ve already framed mine. I didn’t actually decided the wall where i want to hang it because i still live with my dad for now and i wanted to put it on my home office when i move to my house. Anyway, i love it as it’s so beautiful and meaningful to me.  

With this being said, i’m so happy i’ve discovered Mapiful. I just love the concept. What about you guys? Do you love it as much as i do?
