Event & Location Maps
Clarity, Navigation, and Beautiful Design in One Place
Whether you're guiding guests through a festival, directing visitors at a venue, or presenting a polished visual for a printed program, a custom-designed map brings structure and style to your experience. At Elusive Concepts, we specialize in crafting bespoke event and location maps that are both beautiful and highly functional. We combine cartographic precision with graphic design sensibility—ensuring your audience knows exactly where to go, and remembers the journey.
Why Custom Maps?
A great map doesn’t just point the way—it shapes the experience. Our maps are:
- Designed for Real People: We tailor maps to the needs of your specific audience, considering accessibility, readability, and key decision points.
- Visually Cohesive: All maps are designed to match your brand or event aesthetic, integrating seamlessly into programs, signage, or digital platforms.
- Informative Without Clutter: We prioritize essential information—no overwhelming icons, no confusing layouts. Just clear, intuitive navigation.
What We Design
We create maps for a wide range of purposes and industries, including:
- Event Maps: For conferences, festivals, exhibitions, markets, and weddings—showcasing zones, schedules, amenities, and points of interest.
- Venue & Facility Maps: Helping visitors navigate campuses, resorts, museums, or large buildings with ease.
- Neighborhood & District Maps: Highlight local businesses, walking tours, or historical landmarks with a touch of visual storytelling.
- Transportation & Wayfinding Maps: Designed for clarity and quick comprehension—ideal for shuttles, parking layouts, or crowd movement planning.
- Print or Digital: All maps are delivered in high-resolution, scalable formats and can be optimized for web, mobile, signage, or print collateral.
Map Styles We Work In
- Minimal & Modern: Clean lines, high legibility—perfect for high-end events or editorial-style guides.
- Illustrated & Artistic: Whimsical, hand-drawn aesthetics that bring charm and personality to your venue or event.
- Technical & Precise: Accurate, grid-based designs ideal for large venues, transportation hubs, or educational institutions.
Our Approach
Every map we create is custom—no templates, no shortcuts. We combine data accuracy with elegant design through a careful, multi-step process:
1: Discovery & Requirements
We discuss your event or location, define your audience, and identify key map features such as zones, landmarks, points of interest, and accessibility routes.
2: Base Data & Drafting
Using reference imagery, blueprints, CAD files, satelite data, or GIS data (if available), we establish accurate layouts and determine the best projection and scale.
3: Design & Styling
We develop a visual language for your map—colors, icons, fonts, and visual hierarchy—all aligned with your brand or event theme. Then we work to combine the precise base data with the refined visual style.
4: Finalization & Delivery
You receive polished, ready-to-use maps tailored to your specifications and needs. Print-ready files? Interactive digital maps? We've got you covered.
