The town you were born in. The city where you met. The coast your family still lives on. Tag each one with what it means: born, lived, studied, met, married, family, visited, adventure.

Accurate enough to navigate by.
A Heartbound Maps is not decorated with random arrows. It is drawn from real coordinates. Each arrow points along the true compass bearing from your home to that place, and the number beside it is the great-circle distance, the actual shortest path over the curve of the earth.
When forty labels crowd the page, our layout engine nudges each name into clear space. It never moves an arrow. The direction is the whole point, so the direction stays true no matter what.

- The center point. Everything is measured from here.
- The arrow
- Points along that place's true compass bearing from home.
- The number
- The great-circle distance, as the crow flies.
The artwork is drawn as vector graphics and rendered for print on our servers at 300 DPI. Whatever size you order, every hairline and every label comes out sharp.
Try it. Measure from your own home town.

Paper you notice the moment you pick it up.
Every print is made to order on Hahnemühle German Etching, a 310gsm textured fine art paper, with archival pigment inks that hold their color for decades. Each one is checked by hand before it ships.
For scale: everyday printer paper weighs about 90gsm. Most poster-shop prints are 120 to 170. This is 310, closer to card than paper, with a surface texture you can feel.
Framed prints come on smooth 300gsm cotton rag behind glass, in a solid natural oak frame that arrives wired and ready to hang.

Good to know.
How are the arrows and distances worked out?
From real coordinates. Each arrow points along the true compass bearing from your home to the place, and the distance is the great-circle distance, the real shortest path across the globe.
What sizes can I order?
Three portrait sizes: 12 by 18, 16 by 24, and 24 by 36 inches. The artwork is vector, not a flat image, so it's rendered fresh for your order at 300 DPI, the same resolution standard used for gallery and museum prints, and every hairline and label stays sharp at any size.
How much does shipping cost?
Nothing. Every order ships free across the United States, no minimum order and no surprise fee at checkout. The price you see when you check out is the price you pay.
What if my print arrives damaged or there's a fault?
We'll always make it right. If your print arrives damaged, or there's a fault, send us a quick photo and we'll ship a free replacement or refund you in full. No need to return the original.
Do I need an account to try it?
