Fear not, moggie
appreciators:
just because a
cat does not
currently dwell
in your place of
residence, doesn’t
mean you won’t
have a furry overlord
of your own one day.
Netherlands-based
illustrator Sophie
Gunter has whipped
up some stickers
to commemorate
her future cat lady
status, and you can
get in on the action,
too, for around
$1 and a quick trip
to zwartkapje.

Once upon a time, Melbourne designer Bianca Vallentine made swish
things for you to wear on your person. But then, fed up with fly-by
seasonal cycles, she set her sights on something more enduring:

linen for you to snooze, read and loll about on, with every piece hand-
painted by Bianca and her local team. Want to see more? Head over to
