64 colors

64 colors is an extremely talented pair of creatives named laura and eric. you may know them if you are active in the toy scene. their little marshall has traveled all over—here he is in tokyo! in addition to toys, 64 colors also designs prints and paints wonderful worlds that feature their characters. some of my favorite prints are miso tippy and noodles, which i appreciate even more now that they are a daily part of my diet in japan. the paintings i cant get enough of are control freak, sweet dreams, toast, and destination unknown. if you love 64 colors and need a place to sketch, you should check out their new artist chubby book, which is now available on pinkghost!

and, as you can imagine, with a name like 64 colors it was
torture choosing just 5, so they would like to add a lovely black—
60 | 70 | 70 | 70—to the palette below.



our version of a soft palette, picked from 50/60s books and prints. we really need 6 colors to complete our set. break the rules!

noferin

noferin is an art team comprised of nick (writer and sculptor) and candy (graphic designer). physically they reside in sydney, australia, but mentally they occupy a place known as carrara island. its a magical place where their small characters known as a pecanpals thrive. noferin creates these little guys by hand, from the 100% sustainably-harvested wood of rubber trees. you can get to know each pecanpal here—personally i relate to jac jac best. and on may 5th noferin is releasing naked (gasp!) versions of the pecanpals—feel free to stare, but try not to point.



these are the colours of our pecanpals.
