No Red Pins Needed. Scratch-Off Map, in 2 Sizes, Reveals Your Travels.

Scratch Map is a large, high quality wall map which features a gold top foil layer. Why? So you can scratch off all the places you’ve visited to reveal a whole new world below, featuring vibrant color and geographical detail.




Full Size Scratch Off Wall Map:

This 81.9 x 58.2 cm world map is based on the idea of the scratch card so you just scratch off the places you've been and bright colours will be revealed underneath. Scratch Map also includes facts about certain countries and cities. Fun for all the family.

Weight: 0.3 kg

Travel Edition Scratch-Off Map:



The Travel Edition Scratch Map also has some hip tips on it. For example, did you know that Bulgarians shake their heads from side to side to mean 'yes' and nod up and down to say 'no'? Did you know that cutting down a cactus in America carries a twenty five year prison sentence? Perhaps think twice about bringing home a prickly present for someone. One of the other quirks the map has is sections where you can jot down the music you listened to, the best friend you made and the top 10 highlights. In short, the Scratch Map Travel Edition is brilliant.

Out of tube: 42 x 29.7cm

Flavor Paper Wallcoverings: Scratch n' Sniff, City Park, Fishnet & Nouveau Riche

New Orleans' Flavor Paper has lots of great wallpaper designs. Most unusual are their actual Scratch and Sniff wallpapers, Jon Sherman's Fishnet, and Dan Funderburgh's new urban looking toile called City Park and his tongue in cheek Nouveau Riche.

The Fruit Cocktail Collection of scratch & sniff wallpapers was released at Wonderland for NY Design Week 2007. They can print it without scent if preferred, but then why would you want it? “The Fruit Cocktail Collection” by Michael Angelo for Flavor Paper features designs called Cherry Forever, Tutti Frutti, and B-a-n-a-n-a-s. Cherry Forever is included in the permanent collection at the Smithsonian Institution’s Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum.

In addition to those, Dan Funderburgh created City Park, another take on the traditional toile or damask looking wallpaper. From afar, it looks like something that might be in the ladies room of a fancy hotel, but upon close inspection one can see the parking meters, rats and fire hydrants:
