Button stools and four other finds
Smart product design, bright illustrations and inspiring videos, this month’s finds are a celebration of how design, art and creativity can elevate everyday life.
In studio news we’ve got a little project for Dragonfly Tea to celebrate their 25th birthday by creating a simple sample box with two jobs to do.
See you next month,

New work
Dual-purpose packaging
Dragonfly Tea is celebrating 25 years in business this year. Instead of the usual self-congratulatory advertising campaign, they’ve taken a more thoughtful approach by giving back to customers through independent health food shops across the UK.
