Our Story

A small studio by the sea.

Puff Designs began with a sketchbook and a salt-air walk. Today, our quiet collection of patterns, prints and original work is made entirely by hand — drawn, painted and printed in small batches.

Founded 2018

The story

It started in a sun-bleached studio above the harbour: one linen sketchbook, a tin of watercolours, and the conviction that the small, hand-drawn things deserved a place in modern homes.

Eight years on, we still draw every pattern by hand. We work with a small group of printers in the UK and Portugal who share our love of slow craft and low-impact materials.

Every piece carries the marks of the hand that made it — and we wouldn’t have it any other way.

Our Mission

To make hand-drawn beauty an everyday thing.

We design pieces meant to be lived with — soft fabrics, well-bound notebooks, prints that earn the wall they hang on. Nothing precious; everything considered.

Our Vision

A slower, more textured way to decorate.

We believe homes should feel collected, not curated. We work in small runs, with natural fibres, and always with the long view in mind.

01 · Draw

Every pattern starts on paper.

Walks along the cliff path turn into pencil sketches, then watercolour studies. Only the strongest become repeats.

02 · Print

Made carefully, in small batches.

We work with low-impact reactive inks and natural fibres. Every batch is checked by hand before it leaves the studio.
