Discover the Atlas of Everything We Forgot to Map

What deserves to be mapped? Most atlases stick to the predictable: countries, cities, mountains, roads. But what about the important things we overlook—the patterns of daily life, the emotions we don’t discuss, the tiny observations that make us human?

This extraordinary book of maps features 52 unconventional maps born from curiosity and everyday inspiration. Created as a passion project that quickly became an obsession, each map transforms the ordinary into the cartographic: subjects that “don’t seem to rise to the level of map importance” but absolutely should.

Inside you’ll find:

• A full year’s worth of maps—one for every week
• Subjects ranging from the deeply important to the delightfully unexpected
• Hand-crafted cartography that challenges what maps can be
• Topics inspired by the author’s runs, errands, and whatever they were “in the mood to make”
• Includes “Running While Female” and “Hands Off Protest Signs” maps

Originally shared with a small community of supporters, these maps prove that anything—anything—can be mapped when you look at the world with fresh eyes.

Perfect for: Curious minds, map lovers, anyone who sees the world a little differently, and people who believe life’s too short to save things for later.

One map per week recommended. (But who are we kidding—dive in.)
