A 3D wooden world map arrives in separate pieces that come together to create a striking display on your wall. This video shows how to arrange and install the map, helping you understand the process before you begin. Watch it once before starting, then keep the video nearby as a visual reference while you work.
Before You Start Installing Your 3D Wooden World Map
A little preparation helps you position the continents neatly and create a balanced display. Before attaching the pieces, take time to plan the wall and check the layout.
- Choose the wall. Select a suitable wall with enough clear space for the map and room around its outline. A living room, study, home office or entrance foyer can provide an effective setting.
- Arrange the pieces first. Lay out the continents on the floor and check their positions before transferring the arrangement to the wall.
- Mark guide lines. Use light pencil marks to help keep the map level and maintain the intended alignment as you install the pieces.
- Follow the installation instructions. Use the supplied instructions and recommended fixing method for your particular map and wall surface. Check what is included before beginning.
Planning the placement before installation is especially useful when the map will sit above a console, desk or sofa. Consider the furniture below it, the height at which it will be viewed and the amount of open wall around the continents.
Make Your World Map Your Own
Once your map is installed, you can use it to highlight countries you have visited, places that matter to you or destinations you hope to explore. Flags Push Pins add colour country by country, while Airplane Push Pins can mark travel destinations.
The maps are made using layers of birch wood, so natural differences in grain and tone contribute to the character of each piece. These maps are designed as decorative wall art rather than detailed geographical references. Some very small countries and islands may not be shown.
For a considered display, leave enough space around the map so its layered contours remain visible. Avoid crowding the wall with too many nearby objects, and coordinate the map's colour with the furniture, lighting and finishes in the room.
