Illo Mellow :: Nina in vorm

Just came across the compelling and cheery work of Dutch designer Nina in vorm, I can’t get enough of bold colors and strong forms (really, I had a hard time choosing a few items to feature!).

I’m always in the look out for nice French prints (we are a French family, so I like to have my native language on the walls ^_^), so when I saw these illos from Eva Juliet, I just couldn’t resist! She also has Englishified prints, and a very lovely herb set which would be perfect [...]

Illo-Mellow :: Jill Gallenstein

Jill Gallenstein’s illos are mesmerizing; I love how she makes patterns turn chaotic. From her artist statement:
