When embarking on a redecoration project, the opportunity for a complete transformation presents itself. New colours, furniture, and ornaments can breathe new life into a space, along with the addition of a stone world map to decorate the wall. In today's example, we explore one such instance featuring a StoneCut world map nicely integrated into a newly furnished room in the UK.
The spotlight of today's display shines on a world map from the StoneCut series, proudly displayed in the United Kingdom. In the accompanying photo collage, the transformation of the space is evident; the client's renovation efforts have rejuvenated the room, with all walls painted a pristine white and the former fireplace replaced by a sleek cupboard wall. A strategically placed plant in the corner adds a refreshing touch of nature to the ambiance. The world map, with its rich, global hues, serves as a focal point against the clean backdrop of white walls and ceiling. Specifically, the StoneCut Autumn Forest world map is famous for its autumnal palette, ranging from vivid yellows to deep reds and from lush greens to earthy browns. The slate stone texture gives the impression that the map itself was crafted from layers of autumn leaves, patiently accumulating over time. It's truly remarkable how nature can produce such exquisite materials over millions of years, and it becomes even more extraordinary when those same materials depict the world from whence they came.
While not the most petite of world wall pieces, maps of this size certainly draw attention with their expansive coverage. However, despite their considerable dimensions, they inevitably fall short in accurately depicting the smaller islands scattered across our globe. To visualise the scale discrepancy, one need only consult Google Maps for a firsthand perspective.
Nonetheless, there are islands that warrant special consideration, such as segments of the Hawaiian archipelago, which are just slightly too small to be represented at this scale. In response to the client's desire to include these islands in the wall piece, select smaller ones were enlarged to integrate with the overall design. The resulting effect, in our opinion, is really pleasing.
We invite you to share your thoughts on this slate stone world map or to inquire further about the redecoration process and its accompanying map design.
