About the CUBE
The CUBE turns a city into something you can hold onto. Not just a place on a map, but a memory, a moment, or a connection made physical. Whether it's where you grew up, where you met someone, or where you keep coming back to, each model captures what makes that place yours.
Built from high-precision 3D data, every street and structure is reproduced with remarkable detail at miniature scale. The result is a clean, architectural object that feels like the city it represents. Crafted in Germany using a biodegradable, corn-based material and finished with a solid wood frame, the CUBE is designed to last.
Compact in size, it fits naturally on desks, shelves, or sideboards (and can also be wall-mounted). Subtle enough to blend in, but distinctive enough to start a conversation.
And if you're choosing it as a gift, it arrives ready to give. Thoughtful, personal, and made to mean something.

Materials
Crafted from a biodegradable, corn-based material, each model features a distinctive matte surface with a subtle, plaster-like texture. The carefully developed white tone is not a pure white, but a soft, curated shade designed to enhance depth, light, and shadow, bringing out the finest details of the cityscape.
Together with a solid black-painted wood frame, the materials are chosen to create a precise and timeless architectural look.

3D Data
The quality of a city model begins with its data.
At CITYFRAMES, every model is built using our own CitySculpt process, a combination of high-quality source data and extensive manual refinement. Instead of relying on generic map data, we carefully reconstruct each area to achieve a level of clarity, accuracy, and consistency that standard datasets simply can't provide.
Buildings are positioned with high precision, details are selectively enhanced, and each city is optimized to create a clean, readable miniature that still feels true to the real place.
The result is 3D data designed specifically for physical models, not just visualizations.

Built on CitySculpt
Only at CITYFRAMES
Every CUBE begins with CitySculpt, our in-house framework for high-precision 3D city data, refined by hand since 2019. Rather than relying on generic sources, we curate and process each city ourselves.
What that means in practice: every street where it belongs. Every building you'd recognize. The closer you look, the more you find.
More about CitySculptDesigned to last
The most delicate landmarks, towers and antennas sit on a magnetic base. Removable, replaceable, and precisely aligned every time.
If one of these elements ever breaks, only the affected part can be replaced instead of the entire model. This helps preserve the model’s original look for years to come.
