Good to know

What do I need to make one?

Your activities: connect Strava in the Studio or drop in a GPX or TCX file from any watch or app, pick the day or the year, choose a style, and the print is drawn in seconds. The Photo Print needs only your race photograph.

Can I make one for someone else?

Yes, with a gift voucher: they connect their own Strava and compose it themselves, paying with the code. Or choose a Course Print of their race, which needs no data at all.

Can I change what it says?

Every part of the print can be moved, resized, recoloured or removed in the Studio — the title, the date, the statistics, the route's colour — and the preview there is the print. Nothing is printed until you order.

How is it printed and framed?

Like every print here: giclée printed on 200 gsm enhanced matte fine-art paper with archival pigment inks, then framed by hand in solid wood — a classic frame in eight colours or a box frame, with or without a mount — or sent rolled for a frame you already have. Made to order and posted tracked; the print guide has the sizes.

How it works

From the Studio to your wall in three steps.

The Heatmap print: a year of London runs layered into one map of familiar roads
Step 01

Choose your subject

Connect Strava in one tap for a race, a ride or a whole year. Or search for a place, type a postcode for your street on the old Ordnance Survey, or add a photograph — none of those needs an account.

The Contours print: a year of runs drawn as density contours, the ground darkest where the miles repeat
Step 02

Choose your style

Start from a finished design and make it yours: the words, the colours, the size. Twenty-three styles for your own miles, four treatments for a place, six layouts for a photograph, and the old survey as drawn or in your colours.

The Distance rings print: one ring for every activity of the year, the longer arcs the longer days
Step 03

We print and frame it

Pick a frame, check out, and it is printed to order on fine-art paper, framed by hand and posted to you, tracked.
