The Yasawa Islands, Fiji | XL

For the traveller who anchored off Nacula. The honeymooner who learned to dive. The one who watched the sun set on the Yasawas and never quite came home.

This handcrafted wooden depth map captures the Yasawa chain in full - the warm shallows of the lagoons, the deep blue beyond the reef, and the long arc of islands stretching north from Viti Levu. Laser-cut from premium European Birch in our Auckland studio, and hand-painted layer by layer to reveal the seafloor beneath. How it's made

It starts with the ocean itself - bathymetric data recording the actual depth of the floor, contour by contour. The wood is laser-cut to those exact contours, painted in graduated tones from shallow turquoise to deep blue, and assembled entirely by hand by our team in Auckland. Every map is made this way - slowly, carefully, until the seafloor comes to life.
