Celebrating Heritage Day 2016!

Carla — Sat, 24 Sep 2016 05:30:44 +0000

Today is Heritage Day and we’ve designed a special suite for the occasion! Introducing National Treasure – an African-inspired invitation and stationery suite that makes one want to spend an afternoon with sundowners in one of South Africa’s magnificent game reserves. We’ve gone with a muted colour palette that is reminiscent of the dusty bushveld and we’ve brought in pretty tribal patterns, all to be printed on a smooth paper.

You can get your hands on this collection with the link below or shop individual items by clicking on them.

Wanderlustre – Brooklyn, NY

Kathryn Grogan Ivanfy, the proprietor of Wanderlustre contacted us last year to design their corporate identity and needless to say we jumped at the opportunity. We loved the whole concept of the store as it sells very quirky curated furnishing pieces in Brooklyn, New York. I love the description on their website as it sums up what they are about perfectly:

“Wanderlustre is a cabinet of curiosities with furniture, gifts, and accessories for the modern day collector. It is a curated collection of unexpected companions. Exotic and modern, matte and shiny, neutral and colorful come together in an eclectic mix that defines today’s style.

Objects are collected at markets and antique fairs and sourced at world design centers and showrooms.

The “wanderer” favors taxidermy, dark, ethnic, and old treasures. While the “lustre” attracts those who appreciate sparkle, light, color and fun.

If you have an appetite for beautiful things, Wanderlustre is sure to delight.”

The brief was to design a logo that contrasted the dark elements of ‘Wander’ and the light sparkly side of ‘Lustre’. The result – a zebra facing a unicorn! The zebra represents the ‘wander’ and the unicorn represents ‘lustre’ – It matches the quirkiness of the store perfectly!
