Masaru Suzuki

MasaruSuzukiMasaru Suzuki is a Japanese textile designer known for his colorful and vivid pattern designs. His work is inspired by nature, plant and animals and can be seen in many functional fabrics for everyday use. Some of his designs can be seen in his line of printed umbrellas but we are also drawn to this superb line of embroidered umbrellas. You can see much of his work under his brand, Ottaipnu.

Mondocherry

MondocherryMondocherry is a homeware store located in Malvern, a suburb of Melbourne, Australia. The company is the conception of two sisters, Clare Scholes and Joy Stewart, along with their mother, Sue Hopper. They launched their store to showcase original designs as well as work from other international designers and artisans. We particularly like their range of layered hand cut paper shapes formed into a sculptural piece and framed in a shadow box. You can follow them on Facebook and see their range of products on Instagram.
