まちかたち: A Place You Can Hold

A planned custom 3D relief map that turns a chosen address and its surrounding streets, buildings, rivers, and terrain into a framed keepsake.

Why it surfaced

This Himeji-based project is unusually clear about both its emotional promise and its limits: a childhood home or memorable street becomes a tactile, mostly white model, with no trees, cars, signs, or roof details. The maker is preparing a crowdfunding launch from a single 3D printer and openly explains how flat neighborhoods, seams, scale, and exaggerated elevation will affect the finished object.
