John's Task 8 PPP

Here are ten studios which in future i would like to Contact.
Kauniste
http://www.kauniste.com/?lng=en

"Kauniste was created by uniting the talents of young Scandinavian graphic designers and craftsmen. Our aim is to combine the best of both worlds: fresh design and traditional screen printing skills. We work to bring you items that can be used and cherished in the daily life for decades to come.We use water based, solvent free inks, and we are careful not to waste water in production. We use linen mix fabric as the linen makes the fabric durable, it absorbs well moisture and dries fast. Linen leaves practically no surplus waste in production, and it's qualities only improve with time.We want to make patterns and products that last and keep bringing joy to our home past seasonal trends."
One of the reasons why i chose this design agency was due to the fact that it is based in finland, I would love to be able to experience design practice abroad and therefore this company would be great to work for. I also really like their direction of practice, they screen print, onto things which are used in everyday life, they are very quirky.  



Cole and Son

Based in London this Wallpaper designer has worked for many huge clients including Jeffrey & Co, Sanderson and Shand Kydd. In addition to high quality block printing, the company was renowned for supplying beautiful stripes and jaspes. One of the reasons why i enjoy their design so much is down to the detailed patterns involved in every design, as well as their use of colour and delicate illustrations. they ar specialists in block printing, screen printing, surface printing and flocking, all methods which I really appreciate.  



Marimekko

Marimekko is a Finnish textile and clothing design company renowned for its original prints and colours. The company designs and manufactures high-quality interior decoration items ranging from furnishing fabrics to tableware as well as clothing, bags and other accessories. Once agin this choice was based on Location and direction of practice.

Hygge & West

While hygge manifests itself differently for each person, it is ultimately about living better. By collaborating with artists and discovering new ways of joyful living, Christiana and Aimee hope that Hygge & West will inspire you to create more hygge in your own life. I chose this company as they have an eco friendly logic.
