Mmm Shinzi Katoh

I'm going through a real phase at the moment of being obsessed with the Japanese designer Shinzi Katoh. I love his cute illustrations but more than that I totally respect and admire his use of colour.


1. SK - bento sun, 2. Can you find squirrel, 3. Mug mosaic, 4. Mary Mary, 5. Postcard - Orange Elephant, 6. Postcard - Bear, 7. Postcard - Biggest Animal, 8. Postcard - Almost All, 9. SK - slices of sweetness.


Mmm, a new Shinzi Katoh mug and homemade banana bread with morning tea - how can you go wrong?

Love, love, love Shinzi Katoh! His illustrations are so strikingly sweet and innocent, perfectly accented by his choice of colours. Thanks for sharing more Shinzi creations to swoon over (and save up for!)
