Warkworth Map (1942)
Warkworth Map (1942)
This New Zealand Survey topographical map of Warkworth from 1942 captures the Mahurangi coast at a moment when the world was watching the Pacific very carefully indeed.
Every bay and headland is mapped in precise detail — Kawau Bay and Omana Bay opening out to the sea, Matakana and Puhoi tucked inland, and Snells Beach and Algies Bay still decades away from becoming the weekend destinations they are today. This is the Rodney coast before the vineyards, the galleries and the long queues at the Matakana farmers market.
This map would look superb hanging in your lounge or bach. Its soft pastel tones would make a timeless addition to any home north of Auckland.
It would make a wonderful gift for anyone with roots in Warkworth or the Mahurangi, for Kawau Island regulars, or for anyone who loves this beautiful stretch of coastline.
This map comes in a 8 × 10 aspect and we offer two different finishing options. Please choose from the following selection to make it your own.
ㅤ
Acrylic Print
Perfect for any room where gallery quality is optimal, our Acrylic Prints are also ideal for bathrooms and wet areas.
Your map will be printed in our boutique print studio on Kodak Professional substrate using archival inks, and then mounted in-house on crystal clear acrylic for a back-lit appearance and unrivaled vibrancy.
Finally, it will be seamed with 4mm ACM (Aluminium Composite Material) for a modern frameless finish. A custom hanger is attached before the print is securely packaged and sent to you, ready to hang on your wall.

Wall Art on ACM
Our ACM Wall Art prints are sleek and non-reflective. Your photograph will be printed in our boutique print studio on Kodak Professional Paper using archival inks and then mounted in-house on 4mm ACM.
A custom hanger is attached before the print is securely packaged and sent to you, ready to hang on your wall.
