Haptic Lab

I have just fallen in love with the "Soft-Map" quilts by Brooklyn based designer Emily Fisher of Hiptic Lab. It is just a perfect gift for a friend moving away from their home, newlyweds and new parents or me just because I would treasure it so. The quilts can be quite colorful, even custom but the solid color with the the roads and rivers and streets most appeals to me. I can't imagine how much time it takes to do something like this. So much energy put into each item. There is a really cool article the Herman Miller blog about the types of music and books on tape that Fisher listens to while she works. I remember in college for one interior design studio project I listened to the David Grey's CD "White Ladder" on repeat for about 14 hours.

What city would you get?
