Design Your Own

Think wide. 9:4 wide.

The finished artwork is landscape: 900 mm wide × 400 mm high. Ask for flat artwork, not a photo of a desk mat.
Let the background go further.

Extend the background 3 mm beyond every trim edge. Keep important text and details at least 10 mm inside the finished edge.
Check the file, then upload.

AI can ignore size instructions. Check the exported pixels and composition in an image editor before uploading. Do not stretch the artwork to fit.

Compose the FINISHED area in landscape 9:4, for a 900 × 400 mm desk mat. Place the main subject thoughtfully, leaving space where a keyboard and mouse may sit. Keep essential text, faces and logos at least 10 mm inside the finished edge.

Extend the background naturally 3 mm BEYOND all four finished edges as bleed. The full file including bleed is 906 × 406 mm; only the central finished area is 9:4. Do not add a border, crop marks or guide lines. Do not stretch the composition to add bleed.

Target 5400 × 2400 px for the finished area, or 5436 × 2436 px including bleed. If exact export dimensions are unavailable, create the highest-resolution artwork you can and explain how to crop or extend it to the required canvas. Actual exported dimensions must be checked.

Output the artwork itself with an opaque background: no desk scene, product mockup, perspective distortion, watermark or unrequested text.
