Lea Linin Studio is the playground of Vancouver-based illustrator Lea Linin.
Welcome to the studio
Hi there, Lea here! This is the space where I explore ideas big and small and turn my sketchbook pages into fully grown products that hopefully make you smile. Each parcel you order is carefully packed and sent by me from my studio in Vancouver, BC. This whole thing is a one-person operation, but using ‘we’ instead of ‘I’ somehow feels better. ☺
We like to explore & keep things small.
Our products are printed in small batches and on demand to keep waste minimal and reduce our footprint. We collaborate with like-minded small businesses with a passion for craftsmanship and sustainability.
Printed in Small Batches
We’re keen to provide you with no-frills packaging without taking away the excitement of the unwrapping experience. Our products are wrapped in glassine paper and packed using recycled corrugated cardboard and water-activated gum tape for extra padding and protection–only what is necessary for the items to reach you without getting damaged.
Minimal Packaging
We use sustainably sourced paper with Forest Stewardship Council and Sustainable Forestry Initiative certification as well as post-consumer recycled paper for our cards and archival quality cotton rag paper for our giclee prints. Our papers are uncoated, too, which makes them recyclable and compostable.
Sustainably Sourced and Recycled Uncoated Papers
We love exploring printing processes that are gentler to the environment. We have been using Indigo printing and we’re currently exploring & falling in love with risograph printing. It’s a more sustainable printing method as it employs a cold printing process that uses up little energy and non-toxic soy-based inks.
