About
Every place has a story.
I draw it.
I'm Cyril, an engineer by trade and a mapmaker by obsession. It started with one map: a place that mattered to me, drawn late at night because nothing I could buy felt personal enough. Framing it changed how the room felt. People kept asking where it came from.
ParciparlaCo is what grew out of that. I design each poster individually: the city where you grew up, the lake your family drives back to every summer, the marathon you trained a year for. Real cartographic data, drawn down to the streets, shorelines and elevation lines, then reduced until only the essential remains.
It's still a one-person studio. I design every map, check every label and coordinate by hand, and only then send it to print on museum-quality matte paper. If you email, you're talking to the person who made your poster.
Being an engineer, I also build my own tools: the shop's Etsy side runs on Listadum, software I created to manage and optimize Etsy listings.
The name? Ask my kids. Some words are like favorite places: they only make sense to the people who were there.
