About us
... and we want to take you on a journey which perhaps is already behind you. Now is the perfect time to reminisce and bring your memories to a unique, illustrated map which you can admire, as often as you like.
The Illustrated Map of Europe, has been created with passionate travelers, visionaries and connoisseurs of artistic work in mind. You decide the final look! It is quick & fun, try it yourself!
The current Map of Europe containing 47 countries is the creation of Jędrzej Nyka - a known Polish illustrator, famous for balancing his artwork between the worlds of fantasy and reality.
We are on a mission: offering a map that cannot be compared to the existing “scratch maps”, the work of a valued artist bringing vibrant aesthetics to your interior. We want to promote illustrators - beginners and experienced ones, that contribute to our Illustrated Maps of Europe project and the future interpretations of the Old Continent in their own, unique style.
