Grafomap is a DIY designer map tool that plays on people's desire to surround themselves with sentimental reminders as well as personalized products. Not to mention things that they can proudly say they had a hand in creating themselves. Essentially speaking to the core of many human interests, it's hard not to appreciate the simple act of designing something so meaningful for oneself.
Conceived in part by cofounder Rihard Piks, the DIY designer map tool lets people be as specific about their area of choice as they'd like to be. All a person needs to do is type a location into Grafomap and a minimalist design will come up. From there people can tailor it to their own aesthetic and special points of reference.
