A few weeks ago, one of our clients named Erik came by the office to discuss what may be one of the most exciting projects we've had. Basically, we needed to decorate his new flat's living room with the masculine style he wanted. However, he also needed it to look, we quote, "Like the old kid that I was." We were confused with what to do, but we were also ridiculously thrilled to work on the project.
Fast forward, we came up with five throw pillow designs for Erik's living room. They featured distorted and "personified" characters, with mostly bears since Erik's hobby is bear watching. We decided to give these pillows a touch of hipster to suit Erik's taste. A twenty-something-year-old living by himself needs a cool pad where he can do his own thing, don't you think? We also thought the designs would be great conversation starters whenever Erik would throw a party.
Erik was ecstatic when we showed him our designs! We were so relieved that our hard work had paid off, and the only thing left to do was to print them on linen fabric. The outcome looked gorgeous with the paint as vibrant as ever, and the colors mixing perfectly. Our pillows fit right in with Erik's existing set of neutral-toned linen pillows.
Erik appreciated that the designs weren't as childish as he had expected. He expressed his enthusiasm about their childlike feel and nostalgia, but above all, he was grateful that they reminded him of the joys of being a kid.
