I’m always drawn to interiors that feature maps. It’s partly that I love the way maps look and partly that I find traveling to be both incredibly thrilling and terrifying (the good, push-me-out-of-my-comfort-zone kind of terrifying). Seeing a gorgeous room with great map on the wall gives me goose bumps. Did anyone else see Jenny Brandt’s Design*Sponge sneak peek? Her map-walled dining room blew me away. Thankfully she shared her map source, and I knew one would be perfect in our guest room!
How about a source for the rug? It’s beautiful.

I love your decorating style! The map looks great :)
beautiful job!
I love reading maps. I’ve always had an imagination when it comes to reading maps, and I always enjoyed reading the instruction manuals on role playing adventure games as a kid (and still now). I have a form of synesthesia that gives location a far stronger emotion than normal, and maps have a lot to do with it.
This looks great, I’ve always loved maps and globes too, they remind me of travel! Im focusing my final year project at uni on maps!
So much better then before! Just bought myself a worldmap from an old museum. :)
Absolutely wonderful Amanda!!! Map in a guest room is a great idea. Just looking at a map will urges everyone to travel and visit new places.
Great idea!! This is a creative way to decorate living room with map!
Gorgeous!! Is the map wallpaper? How did you attach it? I would love to do the same in our den but I don’t want to apply the map as wallpaper.
It came with glue to attach it like wallpaper, but I just hung it up with some clear thumbtacks.
where did you find this big map?
