“This poster is a father and son collaboration. All elements are hand drawn by Koen (age 6) with a Sharpie marker at the dining room table, then arranged digitally in our studio.

I have always wanted to visit several of the luxury stationers of Paris but have yet to make a trip to the city specifically for that purpose. Vendel Shakespeare, Stern Graveur, Marie Papier, Cassegrain, Benneton and Armorial are all highlighted here, along with a map and information about each elite paper house.

Apparently, she commands you to write your name on a blank sheet of paper and she will then tell you what your stationery will be. Bon. I can live with that.
