Hi K

Thanks for the comment and compliments on our stationery!

You nailed it when you said our stationery has a special feel to it – that is what we hope for and what we look for. So we are glad you picked up on that.

We are in a different market to Kikki K and Smiggle where importance is placed on unique design and functionality. This is what the customer desires and this is where we hope we can meet their needs.

Hi guys,
What a nice discovery, your stationary looks very cool and cute with a special feel to it all! Do you find it hard to compete with chains such as Kikki K and Smiggles?

Hi Amy

We try to specialise in bringing designers together to create a synergy of product design of the highest standard. We bought together a brilliant Cartographer and then amazing product designers for the creation of our Telegram World Map.

Also we often work closely with designers from O-Check and MMMG giving our suggestions for new products that particularly suit the Australian market or have been requested by consumers. This is always fun!

Nice stuff guys, do you design anything yourselves or you are just collaborating with designers?

Hi Minty
All of our brands are doing well at the moment, but Rhodia, O-Check Design Graphics and MMMG are stand outs. Korea is on fire as far as stationery design is concerned at the moment!

Hi Rebecca
The trends in stationery are towards better quality products that reflect the personality of the user. People are writing less but when they do write they want something that reflects something about themselves or that helps them be more creative than they can be on a computer. The trend away from letter writing has actually served to increase the value of the hand written note or letter. It’s realy rare and special when someone goes to an effort to write something for you

What’s your best-selling stationary at the moment and which country is producing the best designs right now?

Hi Scott & Mike, What trends are you seeing in stationary? How has internet/emails and a more electronic society changed the industry as people don’t send letters anymore?

There is a nostalgia with paper and receiving a hand-written letter that I still enjoy and hope will stay on!
