Mapwheel – beautiful direction table on Kickstarter



By Aleks Buczkowski




Do you remember a MapWheel? It’s an Australian start-up which found an interesting niche. They produce custom-made direction plaque (aka orientation table, toposcope or topograph) that shows the direction and distance from a your chosen home location to your selected points of interest. Everything is done via a web tool which allows users to customise MapWheel by choosing central location, points of interest, materials, fonts and border patterns. The final product is laser engraved and shipped to you worldwide.

MapWheel is now searching for funding on Kickstarter. So if you like the idea please support the project. There are 10 days to go and they’ve collected $8,639 out of $30,000 goal.


What I like about MapWheel is that it’s not a trivial and boring idea. It’s a perfect gift for someone who loves geography and maps. Something personal and useful but at the same time beautiful and smart. Hopefully the project will get funding.
