One reason that coordinates tattoos have become so popular is that they’re similar to having a secret that everyone knows you have, but that nobody else knows but you.
When you see a coordinates tattoo on someone, you may be able to tell by looking at it that it represents latitude and longitude, but it’s impossible to know where it represents without pulling out your maps app and looking it up. This makes the meaning that goes into coordinate tattoos that much more personal and special.
Coordinates tattoos represent a place that is extraordinary to you, whether it be your home, a favorite vacation spot, or the location of that little hole in the wall restaurant that you met your significant other at for your first date.
Where ever idea it is, your coordinates tattoo is sure to be unique to you because you choose the geographic numerical coordinates.
Some people also get coordinate tattoos for places they’ve never visited but wish to go to one day. These serve as a permanent reminder of your goal and can help to inspire you on your journey to your dream destination.
The minimalistic nature of coordinate tattoo designs makes them ideal for anyone as they can be ornamented and embellished to suit whatever style and font that best personifies the wearer.
From a single line of black numbers in your own handwriting to complex compilations of Roman numerals, there really is no limit to how you can customize coordinate tattoos.
