INDUSTRY FOUNDERS

Creative Force Maps built an entire industry around what we love to do—make custom maps that solve your problems. Started in 1987 by Jolan and Bradley Falk, we created Desktop Mapping with Apple and Adobe in 1988. After 9/11, a Creative Force Manhattan map was used to get the Financial District back to work.

GPS, online maps, and smartphones made paper maps in the car unnecessary, and the local map stores and publishers went out of business, limiting the business maps market. Creative Force stepped in to fill the gaps, making large wall maps with detailed street maps of anywhere that could be quickly shipped countrywide.

Today, Creative Force Maps continues the work we began nearly four decades ago: We solve problems using custom maps. When an organization needs to define a territory, tell the story of a community, show where something is happening, or help people understand complicated geographic information, we create the map that makes that happen.

CUSTOM MAPS

All of our custom wall maps are custom printed, so they can be any size and cover any area. We invite you to browse our website for examples to inspire you. Call us, and we can email you examples that are relevant to your project. Color schemes and styles are unlimited.

You can try to generate a map yourself, but that does not mean it is necessarily useful or accurate. A custom map isn’t successful because it contains information; it’s successful because people understand it and it includes the information that matters. No AI—No offshoring. We’ve been the easiest and shortest path to your optimal custom wall map—since 1987.

• So economical that we can revise and print as you need.
• For added value—you also ALWAYS receive Illustrator™ & PDF files with your wall map.

DIGITAL stock MAPS

Because sometimes, all you need is a stock map. We’ll guide you to the right one, or tweak it. Our most common requests are to extend the coverage area, add a downtown inset, or add more road names. Our most popular digital maps are shown on the website for our graphic design, TV/film clients, or anyone with a large format printer and a tight deadline. We do not sell printed stock maps online because we custom-print them to your size and specifications; contact us for pricing.

• Digital Stock Maps can be previewed and the digital files downloaded immediately.
• Thousands of ready-to-go digital maps are not on our website. Tell us what you need.
• Our digital maps are high-resolution, royalty-free, and logically layered Illustrator™ or PDF files.
• If your legal department wants a release, send it over, and we’ll sign it ASAP.
• We support both you and your map after the purchase.
