Love these cute illustrations by London based, but Scandinavian at heart, design studio Ah. This charming concept was designed for a direct mail campaign encouraging people to grow their own. Cute!

Illustration - More from Emily Isles - Italian Inventions

These posters by Emily are available to buy online as A3 or A4 prints, click here. The posters are themes on Italian inventions, I really love her style of illustration and the colours and fonts are just perfect for that retro Italian feel.

Illustration & Branding - Emily Isles

Love, love, love this packaging designed by Emily Isles for Edinburgh based bakehouse Mimi's Bakehouse. Her illustrations are so cute and I love the pastel colours used.

Packaging - Bolu Tea

Think Packaging and Curious (2 New Zealand based studios) worked together on this project and what a result! Bolu are purveyors of fine tea sourced directly from fair trade plantations in India, the curves echo traditional Indian architecture and the  vibrant colours are a true reflection of Indian culture.

Retailer - Castle

I have literally just come across Castle, I don't know how this didn't happen sooner! Their home ware and artworks are amazing. I really love the simple circle prints, the coloured circles used together make some simple shapes look beautiful!
