How to choose your Montreal star map poster
Design a star map print of Montreal that complements your space. Your goal should be creating attractive wall art that brings harmony to your home or office. It should not clash or compete with existing colors, decorations, and accents.
Choose colors and styles for your print that complement existing tones and design features. For example, our Bright or Dark designs blend beautifully with decor with black and white or monotone elements. Our Nisshōki style is perfect if you have Japanese-themed decorations.
Another key consideration is size and format. Our star map posters are available in landscape and portrait formats. A star map with a portrait orientation is perfect for smaller spaces and narrow walls. Landscapes are better suited for wider and larger spaces. There are three sizes available. Larger prints are perfect for feature walls and large spaces, allowing you to make a bold statement.
How to personalize your Montreal star map print
There are lots of ways to customize your map of Montreal’s night sky. Choose a specific date to view the positions of stars and constellations at any time. There are also diverse themes, allowing you to design a print that reflects your tastes and decor.
Four lines of text give you additional ways to personalize your star map. Add a touching message for a loved one, your favorite quote, or lyrics that stir your soul. A date, coordinates, or a place name can also be added. Make your print your own with words that are meaningful to you or a loved one.
Can I design a map poster of Montreal for any special occasion?
Design a night sky poster of Montreal for any special day, whether it is Father’s Day or a wedding anniversary. Friends and family will appreciate personal touches when they receive a star map on their birthday. Add your partner’s preferred quote or lyrics to your brother’s favorite song. Or add a loving message that your loved one will cherish.
The ability to pick a specific date means you can create a map reflecting the positions of stars. Why not surprise your wife with a view of the night sky when you married in Montreal? You can also design star maps from the day of your first date or kiss, an ideal gift for Valentine’s Day.
Why I’m in love with my Montreal star map poster
My wife and I travelled to Montreal for our honeymoon. After our trip, we designed a custom star map poster. It includes the view over the city during our time in Montreal. Plus, we added the dates and our names. The poster is a perfect memento, plus it was a great housewarming gift to ourselves when we moved into our new place!
