About Off The Square Designs
Our Story
Off The Square Designs was born from a love of coastal living and a belief that every wall should tell a story. Founded by Ryan in Charlestown, Massachusetts, our studio creates personalized canvas wall art that helps people celebrate the places, people, and memories they hold dear.
What started as a creative passion project on Etsy has grown into a trusted name in personalized coastal decor. Over seven years and more than 3,100 happy customers later, we maintain a 4.9-star rating because we treat every order like it's our own — because the details matter when you're commemorating something meaningful.
What We Do
We specialize in personalizable coastal canvas wall art — from coordinate signs marking your favorite place on earth, to nautical flag prints spelling out your family name, to beach town directional signs pointing the way home. Every piece is printed on museum-quality canvas and made to order just for you.
Our design process blends a coastal aesthetic — think ocean blues, sandy neutrals, and weathered textures — with meaningful personalization. You choose the names, coordinates, dates, and colors. We bring it to life.
Why Personalization Matters
A generic print is just decor. A personalized piece is a story. It's the GPS coordinates of the beach where you got engaged. It's your family name spelled out in nautical signal flags. It's the directional sign pointing to every town your kids grew up visiting. That's what makes our art different — and why our customers keep coming back.
How It Works
Every piece is made to order using a print-on-demand process. When you place an order, we prepare your custom design and send it to our trusted printing partner. Your canvas is produced with care, quality-checked, and shipped directly to your door — typically within 7-10 business days.
We offer a wide range of sizes, from compact 24"×8" accent pieces to statement-making 72"×24" wall art. Most designs are available in multiple colorways to match your space.
Made with Care
Based in Charlestown, Massachusetts — just steps from the harbor — we draw daily inspiration from the New England coastline. But our customers come from every coast, lake, and shore across the country. Wherever your happy place is, we'll help you hang a piece of it on your wall.
