We're exploring the world, starting from our tiny apartment in the middle of Ohio. These Are Things is a celebration of where we've been, where we're from, and where we dream of going. Inspired by the many adventures that our planet holds, we hope to share a little bit of our wanderlust with you.

These Are Things is Jen Adrion and Omar Noory, two designers from Columbus, Ohio.

In late 2009, we started looking for a simple, modern world map to help us chart our future travels. We couldn't find exactly what we were looking for, so we decided to design our own. A year later, we've turned this one-off project into our main thing, and we couldn't be happier!

Thanks for stopping by!
