School Street Posters began with a single map and a lot of memories.

In 2012, I designed a street map of Normal, Illinois, for my home office. As a graduate of Illinois State University, seeing the familiar names of streets and avenues on my wall immediately brought me back to the people, places and experiences from that time in my life.

In 2014, my wife and I turned that idea into School Street Posters, a design shop specializing in street maps of college towns and cities across the country.

Today, School Street Posters is a map design and print studio based in Wallingford, Connecticut, formerly based in Chicago. We create beautifully detailed street maps of college towns and cities using high-quality printing equipment, materials and substrates.

While the collection has grown far beyond that first street map, the idea behind every design remains the same:

A map can be more than a record of streets. It can be a record of a time and place you never want to forget.

OUR MISSION

Our artwork is inspired by the idea of Community.

Groups of individuals connected by shared experience, no matter their age. People who have sat in the same eateries and pubs, and strolled the same avenues and boulevards. It is language, customs, superstitions and rivalries. While people may come and go from the physical location, they never leave the Community. It is always with them.

Our mission is to provide an expression of that Community. We hope you enjoy our work.
