About
We design interactive maps, geospatial apps, and spatial strategies.
Everyone deserves great maps. Whether you’re a startup, not-for-profit, or large organisation, we help make your data more usable, your products more powerful, and your ideas more impactful.
Story
We've been making data for legends since 2018.
Cartisan was founded by Stella Blake-Kelly with the goal of making location technology more accessible—and more useful—for the people and teams who need it. Our work reduces the friction organisations face when engaging with maps and spatial data, helping them unlock real business and social value from GIS.

Approach
Mapping the world, together
Geospatial technology doesn’t have to be complex. We keep our process clear and collaborative—built on listening, exploring, crafting, and delivering with care. Our aim is to create meaningful work that’s grounded in purpose and built in partnership.
