I like the Latitude/Longitude sign as a detail to finish a maritime theme in my basement. It has the look of an old island mooring marker. And can be used to rough cal GPS system if needed.
My husband and I are building our retirement home in NY up near Lake Champlain. I ordered the sign for the house for him for Valentine's Day. He opened the box before and thought it was great. It sits on our china cabinet reminding us of our future home.
