A memory of home, mapped

Not simply a map of where you live. A memory of the best days of your life.

KNOWOL created this portrait of Canaan as it looks today, using the visual grace of an old New England atlas. Modern streets, individual houses, shaded terrain, water, parks, and familiar local places are drawn together in one detailed view of home. Follow the roads, count the houses, and find your exact home on the map. Once you realize it's accurately placed, the map stops being a decoration and becomes a memory of a place in time.

The Map that Brings Canaan Home

The familiar lines of Amy Road and Deer Road lead the eye into a portrait filled with individual buildings. Look farther and Downtown, Pine Grove, and Town Hall give the map the local character that makes Canaan immediately recognizable.

Made to begin stories

It begins with a roof, then a road. Sand Road leads out toward Pine Grove, and Great Mountain Forest sits close enough to reach on foot. Somebody in the room has a story about all three, and this is usually where it starts.
