Pikku

Valerie Ormiston studied textile design in New York City at the Fashion Institute of Technology. She designed these amazing patterns and created a line of cloth and paper products under the brand name, Pikku. She says of her work: “my designs display a sense of wonder and whimsy through unexpected accents and thoughtful finishing touches, sweet stitches, gorgeous fabrics and happy patterns all in fresh, luscious colors.” These products are available here in her shop.

Craig Frazier

I’m inspired by the simple and witty illustration style of graphic designer/illustrator, Craig Frazier. He explains his process as follows: “If I’ve learned one thing, it’s that the type of thinking that makes design work well is the same type that makes illustration work well. They share a common goal: to produce clean and memorable content while employing ample doses of simplicity, wit, and intelligence.”
