A Perfect Personal Gift

Some cities are more than places. They are where we grew up, fell in love, studied, travelled, or started a new chapter.

Our miniature city models make those memories tangible — a personal gift that looks beautiful on a wall, shelf, or table.

About us

We are Alex and Jane, the two people behind mycity. We combine architecture, computer science, and a love of places to turn real cities into miniature models.

Designed and made in London, each piece is a little reminder of somewhere special—a hometown, the place you fell in love, or the location of a shared adventure.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take to make my model?

We’ll make your model within 3 days of receiving your order and ship it as soon as it’s ready. You’ll receive a shipping confirmation with tracking details once it’s on its way.

Available sizes

All our models currently come in one frame size: 20 × 15 × 3 cm including the frame. The printed model created in our Model Studio measures 16.7 × 11.75 cm without the frame. You can adjust its scale from 1:3,000 to 1:6,000 to choose how much of your chosen place to include.

Looking for something different? We’d be happy to accommodate custom sizes and make larger models! Please get in touch to arrange yours.

Color options

Our models are printed in matte white, with colour accents to make your favourite places stand out. In our Model Studio, you can select buildings to highlight and choose from multiple colors. You can also choose whether to include green areas, such as parks, in green.

Want more colour options or multiple highlight colours? Please get in touch to discuss your idea!

Can I put it on the wall?

Yes! You can display your model horizontally or vertically. The frame comes with a hanging fitting on the back, so it’s ready to hang on your wall.

Can I create a model of any place in the world?

Yes! Use our Model Studio to choose a place anywhere in the world and create your own city model. You can also shop our selected cities for a ready-designed model.

Which data do you use for modelling?

We use different datasets for different countries, depending on what’s available. We usually combine open-source mapping data with proprietary datasets, mainly LiDAR, to recreate the 3D shapes of buildings and landscapes.

What if I am not happy with my model?

Your satisfaction is our top priority. We aim to make every model as close to the preview as possible, but if you’re not happy with yours, please get in touch. We’ll work with you to find a solution.

It goes without saying that if your model arrives damaged, please contact us within 14 days of delivery. We’ll help you arrange a return and offer either a refund or a replacement model.

Our Process

We combine open-source mapping data with proprietary LIDAR datasets to reconstruct detailed city models. Each piece is manually refined by architects and 3D modelling experts. When the city is ready, we 3D-print it with adaptive layer thickness for the maximal model quality.
