Custom Map Poster of Sheffield — Personalised Steel City Wall Art

A personalised Sheffield 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 one of its two universities, live in one of its much-loved neighbourhoods, or are part of the Steel City’s creative revival, 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 Sheffield 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 Sheffield Map Poster Right for You?

A Sheffield map poster works particularly well for:

  • People with a connection to Sheffield — 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 Sheffield, they are difficult to get wrong
  • Interior decoration — Sheffield’s street network is one of the UK’s most underrated and characterful — the city of seven hills. At the right scale, it makes genuinely beautiful wall art

Sheffield has two universities (Sheffield and Sheffield Hallam) and one of the strongest city identities in the north — a great graduation gift city.

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 Sheffield?

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

  • City Centre and Kelham Island — the growing creative quarter — independent breweries, studios, galleries alongside the old steel works
  • Ecclesall Road — Sheffield’s most beloved independent strip — cafes, restaurants, community
  • Broomhill and Crookes — the student heart of Sheffield, on the hills above the city
  • Nether Edge and Sharrow — south Sheffield’s characterful, independent community
  • Hillsborough and Walkley — north and west Sheffield — proud working communities with a creative edge

Sheffield’s famous hills mean its street network is unlike any other UK city — the contours create a map that is genuinely beautiful. In the design tool, search for any street, postcode, or neighbourhood and zoom to exactly the right area.

Which Map Style Should You Choose?

Sheffield’s industrial heritage and creative revival suit a range of styles:

  • Industrial and heritage: Industrial Raw or Shadow Lines — reflects Sheffield’s steel and manufacturing character
  • Creative and contemporary: Gallery Ink or Midnight Ink — suits Kelham Island’s creative energy
  • Warm and community: Dusk Ember or Sandstone Calm — suits Sheffield’s warm, proud neighbourhood communities
  • Dark and premium: Starlit Depth — navy and gold, dramatic over Sheffield’s hilly streets
