Custom Map Poster of Exeter — Personalised Devon City Wall Art

A personalised Exeter map poster is a unique and striking piece of wall art — and one of the most meaningful gifts you can give someone with a connection to the city. Whether you studied at the University of Exeter, live in Devon, or love this remarkable city and its surroundings, a custom map captures something no generic print ever can: your specific place, at your chosen scale, in your chosen style.

At Piggery Studio, every Exeter map is generated fresh from live OpenStreetMap data, printed at 300 DPI on 250gsm archival paper, and designed exactly the way you want it. Use our live design tool to preview your poster before you buy.

Is a Exeter Map Poster Right for You?

A Exeter map poster works particularly well for:

  • People with a connection to Exeter — a map of your own city or neighbourhood is personal in a way no other wall art is
  • Gift buyers — map posters are one of the most appreciated personalised gifts. For anyone with roots in Exeter, they are difficult to get wrong
  • Interior decoration — Exeter’s street network is one of England’s oldest and most beautiful cathedral cities. At the right scale, it makes genuinely beautiful wall art

Exeter is a popular graduation gift city — the University of Exeter has a loyal alumni community, and a map of the city is a beautiful keepsake.

Room suitability: Works in any room. Dark themes (Starlit Depth, Deep Nightfall) suit home offices and moody spaces. Light and neutral themes (Soft Neutral, Gallery Ink) work anywhere.

Which Part of Exeter?

Being specific makes for a much more personal map. Think about which area actually matters to the person it is for:

  • City Centre and Cathedral Close — the magnificent cathedral, the medieval city walls, the historic quayside
  • St Thomas — west Exeter across the river — community character, independent shops
  • Heavitree — east Exeter’s largest residential area
  • Topsham — the beautiful estuary village on the edge of the city
  • Pinhoe and Wonford — north and east Exeter’s established communities

Exeter’s Roman street plan, cathedral close, and the river Exe create a map with a beauty and clarity that reflects the city’s history. In the design tool, search for any street, postcode, or neighbourhood and zoom to exactly the right area.

Which Map Style Should You Choose?

Exeter’s cathedral city character and Devon’s natural beauty suit warm, heritage styles:

  • Cathedral heritage: Vintage Atlas or Sandstone Calm — warm aged tones that suit Exeter’s red sandstone and Norman heritage
  • Natural and Devon: Forest Moss or Woodland Trace — reflects Devon’s green landscape surrounding the city
  • Clean and elegant: Gallery Ink or Soft Neutral — lets Exeter’s beautiful street layout speak
  • Warm and inviting: Dusk Ember or Clay Horizon — earthy terracotta tones that complement Exeter’s red sandstone buildings
