Walk With Me team works in the opposite direction of any truistic map. Their plans, which still does the job of a conventional map, have an added aesthetic value, transforming themselves in unique objects. They try to making a beautiful object out of the maps, "which instead of going to waste ends up hung on a wall".

Walk with me is an office focused on maps development and unconventional guides. We are open to all kind of collaboration, but our editorial work is now about mapping the city district by district. Doing this, quite zoom in, we can highlight what makes each zone unique, and recover the soul of each neighborhood. We collaborate with emerging local artists and we generate bespoke, unique documents. We like to take part in every part of the process: from the creative project to distribution, production through.
We are surrounded by very talented people and they are really willing yo work, so we are many who look at the work, and from many points of view we lose subjectivity. We try to create a new imagery, recovering all stagnant tradition and reinterpreting it.
