Where PIKAPATTERN began

Pikapattern began with hand-painted leaves, sketches, and quiet moments of creativity during a season of healing for our family. Painting and drawing became a way to process loss and rediscover joy through colour and form. What started as artwork for posters slowly grew into designing bedding and décor for our children’s rooms, and later into small projects for family and friends ... experimenting with printers, fabrics, and techniques that would eventually shape Pikapattern into what it is today.

Pikapattern began with hand-painted leaves, sketches, and quiet moments of creativity during a season of healing for our family. Painting and drawing became a way to process loss and rediscover joy through colour and form. What started as artwork for posters slowly grew into designing bedding and décor for our children’s rooms, and later into small projects for family and friends — experimenting with printers, fabrics, and techniques that would eventually shape Pikapattern into what it is today.

Turning illustrations into textile design required years of learning, refining colour, and finding printers who could match the vision.

Patterns slowly moved from paper into digital spaces for refinement — adjusting scale, colour, and repeat until balance was found. From digital to fabric, and from fabric into everyday spaces, where pattern becomes part of how a home feels and tells its story.

Blending Traditional Craft with Modern Design

Some designs begin with paint and paper, while others start digitally to explore colour and composition more freely. Regardless of where a pattern begins, every design follows the same thoughtful journey and carefully repeated, refined, and transformed into textile pieces made to live in real homes.

Technology supports the process, but the heart of the design remains handcrafted.

Today Pikapattern continues to grow through intentional design, slow production, and storytelling through pattern.
