The 6 map styles explained

Every style is a starting point. After choosing one you can still change all colors and road settings.

Minimal

Clean and light. A calm, bright map that suits almost any interior and prints well on white paper.

Bold

Dark and high contrast. Strong lines on a dark background for a striking poster.

Kadaster

Vintage cadastral red. A warm, classic look inspired by old land registry maps.

Liberty

Vibrant and detailed. More color and detail, close to a classic OpenStreetMap look.

Positron

Clean and minimal. Subtle gray tones that let the street pattern speak.

Dark Matter

Dramatic and moody. A deep dark map that stands out on a light wall.
