New Home Star Map of the First Night Under Your Own Roof
The first night in a new home is quiet in a particular way: boxes everywhere, one lamp working, and a sky outside that is now yours to look at. A new home star map records it. It shows the stars above the address on the night you moved in, drawn from a real astronomical catalog, with the coordinates of the house printed beneath. It is a housewarming gift that fits the house by definition, or the first thing you hang on your own wall. You design it free in the browser, see the finished map before you decide, and receive the files within minutes, or a framed print delivered ready to hang.
Why a star map for a new home
Housewarming gifts are hard. A plant needs care, wine is gone in an evening, and anything decorative risks not matching a home you have not seen. A star map avoids all three. It is made from the one thing you can be certain of, the address, and its designs are plain enough to suit any interior. It is also the only housewarming gift that literally has the house's coordinates on it.
For the people moving in, the map marks a date that otherwise disappears. Nobody photographs move-in night. A map of that sky, with the street name beneath, becomes the fixed point from which the rest of the house's story is measured.
Which moment to choose
- Move-in night. The evening the keys were handed over and the first boxes came in. Search for the street address rather than the city so the coordinates are the house's own.
- The night the offer was accepted. For buyers who remember the phone call, this is the moment the house became theirs.
- The first night the whole family slept there. Sometimes days after the move, and often the more emotional date.
- The night the house was finished. For a self-build or a long renovation, the evening the work ended.
What to write on it
- The Andersons / our first night here
- 14 Elm Street / home since 20 September 2026
- Our first home / 41.8781 N, 87.6298 W
- Welcome home / the sky above your new front door
- Finally / keys in hand, boxes everywhere
Which design fits
- Paper gives a warm off-white sky with dark stars. It suits the light walls of most new homes and does not fight with furniture that has not arrived yet.
- Navy is a deep ink sky with clean white type, a safe choice for a housewarming gift when you do not know the interior.
- Eclipse sets a dark circular sky on a light ground with a fine ring at the edge. It looks contemporary and suits a modern build or a first apartment.

Beautiful on my wall
Bought one just for myself — the sky on my 30th. The detail is incredible and it looks fantastic framed.

A quiet, lovely keepsake
A map of my father’s birthday sky. Understated and dignified — exactly what I hoped for. Thank you.

We used the sky from our wedding night. It matches our decor perfectly and guests always ask about it.

Questions about the new home star map
Is the sky on the map accurate for our exact address?
Yes. The map is computed from a published star catalog for the date, time and coordinates you enter, precise to the minute, for any date from 1900 to 2100. If you search for the street address rather than the town, the coordinates printed beneath the sky are those of the house itself.
The housewarming is this weekend. Is there time?
For the digital map, yes. It arrives by email within minutes of purchase, and a local print shop can produce a poster the same day. A framed print takes 7 to 12 business days, so for a near date bring a printed copy and let the framed version arrive at the new address afterward.
Should I put the street address on it?
Most people put the street name or house number in the title and let the coordinates beneath the sky do the rest. If the map might be shared publicly, a first name and town are enough; the coordinates are yours to include or leave off in the designer.
We rent. Does a new home map still make sense?
Yes. A home is where you live, not what you own, and many first-apartment maps are made by renters. The map records the night you started living there. When you move, take it with you and make one for the next place, and the pair becomes a record of where you have been.
Can I make one for each home we have lived in?
Yes. Each map is a separate design with its own date and coordinates. A row of two or three homes, in the same design and size, hung in order, is one of the better uses of the product and a common request from couples who have moved for work.
Can I add a photo of the house?
Yes. For $19 you can place a photo on the map, and the designer shows how it sits beside the sky before you decide. A photo of the front door on move-in day, keys in hand, is the usual choice. For a house that was renovated, a before photo next to the finished sky works too.
Can I send the framed print straight to their new address?
Yes. Enter the new address at checkout and it ships there with tracking, in plain packaging without pricing. Shipping is free to the US and 40+ countries and usually takes 7 to 12 business days. Check that they will be there to receive it, since a move often comes with a week or two of chaos and missed deliveries.
Can I preview the map before I buy?
Yes. The designer shows the complete map as you build it, with the date, coordinates, words and design applied, and it updates as you change the address or the time. There is nothing to sign up for and no payment until you are satisfied, so you know exactly what will hang on the wall.
