I built the website and web app using a combination of Webflow and Mapbox Studio allowing me to customise the styling of the map to closely simulate the framed floating map artwork.
With the map editor web app, users can select their location, zoom level and custom text labels. The resultant map designs are then exported as vector files and sent to be printed by a laser cutter from fine-grade paper. The works are displayed encased within 2 sheets of glass and set away from the background of the frame, creating a subtle drop shadow.
Early testing revealed users became disorientated by a lack of labels on the map, originally entirely omitted in order to represent an accurate preview of the final artwork. By temporarily enabling the visibility of the place names when the user directly interacts with the map, allowed for an intuitive geographical aid without compromising the expected output of the printing process.
