These Are Things Maps

In 2009 Jen Adrion and Omar Noory, two designers based out of Columbus, Ohio, began creating these simple yet beautiful maps in order to visualize their world travels. When creating the first “These are Things Maps”, their primary goal was to create a map that was easy to read and navigate, but was also pleasant to look at. Looking at the variety of different maps that they offer, from world maps to United States city neighborhood maps, they have done just that. By using fresh and crisp colors, and also offering their products at an affordable price, Adrion and Noory have without a doubt created something that anyone would love to hang on their walls. To see a behind the scenes photo stream of their workshop and studio space, as well as adorable pictures of their cat, check out their Flickr.
