Awesome Maps has been helping globetrotters see the world differently since 2010. Read the full story here!
It all started 10 years ago, with an idea.
After a surf trip through Europe, our founder Simon wanted to track his surf travels by pinning the spots he had been on a map. But a political map was way too boring for that - so he made his own!
We’re a remote team of 6.
We work from all over the world, including Cologne, Berlin, Hamburg, Madrid, Lisbon and Asia.
Plus our extended team. A community of illustrators, designers, web developers and explorers working on helping you discover your world.
Lars - the Illustrator
Lars has illustrated most of our maps, from his studio in Cologne and on location in Bali - he has hand-drawn every bit of the maps he illustrated, old school with pencil and paper!
Materials & Production
All our products are made in the EU using highest quality materials with eco standards - we want you to make memories with our products and cherish them for a long time.
With some of our supply partners we've worked for 10+ years, from our renowned printing company, to the packaging partner employing people with disabilities, both in the heart of Berlin.
