Amsterdam Nautical 3D Wooden Depth Map

This bathymetric 3D wooden map of Amsterdam is a unique layered wall decoration that reveals the water depths, underwater formations, and coastlines of the city and its surroundings through six precisely assembled wooden layers.

The map consists of 6 individual layers, carefully stacked to create a true bathymetric depth effect. The top layer is always natural wood, finely laser-engraved with detailed streets, districts, and coastlines. The lower layers are individually painted and stained, becoming progressively darker as the water depth increases.

Deeper sea areas are represented by darker tones, while shallower waters remain lighter, making the map not only a decorative piece but also a visual interpretation of the seafloor’s topography. The lower layers are highly detailed as well, showing real underwater terrain rather than flat color surfaces.

All six layers are aligned with millimeter precision. Each layer is painted before assembly, ensuring a clean, sharp, and professional final result.
