How big is a model?
Each tile is 130 mm (about 5.1 in) across with a thin, flat base — square and hexagon tiles connect edge-to-edge, so a full 3×3 build is roughly 390 mm wide. Every tile covers a 2 km-wide capture of the real city.
What is it printed in?
PLA, printed in two colours: structure in one filament, roads, parks and water inlaid in a contrasting one. Crisp edges, no paint, no stickers — the detail is the geometry itself.
Where does the map data come from?
Building footprints, roads, parks and water come from OpenStreetMap and Overture Maps; the ground relief is sampled from real elevation data. If the place exists on the map, we can print it.
How long until it arrives?
Production takes 2–4 business days. US standard shipping is 5–10 business days (express 2–4), Canada 7–14, international 10–21. Shipping cost scales with the size of the build.
Can I mount it on a wall?
Yes — every tile has blind M3 screw pockets hidden under the base (four on squares and circles, six on hexagons), so it mounts flush to a board or frame with standard M3 screws.
Can I preview exactly what I'll get?
The Studio renders the full 3D model in your browser before you order — every building, road and shoreline. What you see in the preview is the geometry we print.
