UAE
Dubai map poster
Dubai was a small pearling village until the discovery of oil in 1966. The city follows the coastline of Dubai Creek and the Arabian Gulf, with a grid of wide boulevards and artificial islands. What surprises most people is that only about 15% of Dubai's population are Emirati. The rest are expatriates, which is reflected in the city's architecture, food, and culture.

Frequently asked about Dubai posters
What size is the Dubai map poster?
The Dubai map poster measures 30×40cm (roughly 12×16 inches), a standard poster size that fits most ready-made frames available at IKEA, high street shops, and online retailers.
What paper is the Dubai poster printed on?
All Dubai posters are printed on 200gsm archival matte paper with UV-resistant pigment inks. The paper is FSC-certified and the inks are rated for decades of display without noticeable fading.
Can I frame the Dubai map poster?
Yes. The 30×40cm size is a standard frame size. You can find affordable frames at most home goods stores. The poster ships rolled in a sturdy tube and will flatten easily under light pressure or in a frame.
What is the difference between the Dubai colourways?
The Dubai poster is available in 11 colourways: from high-contrast Noir (black streets on white) to coastal Swell (teal tones) and electric Strip (neon-inspired). Each colourway uses the same map data but applies a different colour palette to streets, water, green spaces, and background. You can see all 11 on the Dubai poster page.
How is the Dubai poster made?
Each Dubai poster is generated from OpenStreetMap data and rendered as a clean vector map. It is printed on demand when you order, which means no inventory waste and a fresh print every time.
Does the Dubai poster show landmarks?
The poster focuses on the street network, waterways, and green spaces of Dubai rather than individual landmarks. It is designed as an abstract city portrait where the street layout itself is the subject.
