WE ARE:
artful stationery co.
A women-led creative studio
We are two best friends who decided to launch a business together. Because, why not?
The one on the right is the in-house artist, Srivatchala, who rediscovered her passion for art during Covid. In fact, creating illustrations and dreaming up new designs lifted up her spirits in more ways than one during that dark time.
The other, Harshini, comes from a very different background. After college, she gave up her creative pursuits for a career in tech and management. However, in 2023, she found herself laid-off and heading back towards the creative path through writing and creating digital designs. At that time, Srivatchala requested her help to do market research. Diving into the task and feeling the excitement of starting something new ended up being a mutually beneficial exercise that helped Harshini forge a new path forward.
We also found that together we are stronger.
At the very beginning, we paused to listen to our hearts and set down a business plan that resonated deeply with our values. Since then, before we make any business decision we ensure that our choice aligns with our foundational values. And going forward we have several ideas up our sleeves, with the hopes that more than one will come to fruition.
Our company's goal is to provide plastic-free and functional stationery tailored to current needs. Our store will feature new products and line-ups every few months to suit the season. We also aim to provide custom design services for your wedding, corporate, or festival gifting needs.
Moreover, we will not engage in green-washing, pink-washing, or any other corporate blind-washing techniques.
Plus, we believe that our customers deserve the very best and we strive to fulfill our duty as your trusty, local, premium, stationery store and custom designer(s).
We believe in building a better world.
Each of our products is carefully crafted to align with our core values.
01: Planet-Friendly
All of our products have been designed with Mother Earth in mind. We do not use plastics of any kind to craft our stationery goods. The best part is that they are all completely recyclable. If, at the end of use, you wish to return the product to us, we will happily take them back! Contact us to learn more.
02: Fully Local
Taking care of the environment starts with taking care of your community. Lessen the transportation distance, lessen pollution. We are committed to staying local and supporting Small Businesses in Chennai. All our paper suppliers and printers are located within 5 kms of our office.
03: Functional Elegance
We maintain high standards when it comes to what we produce and we seek to deliver durable and effective goods. This is especially true when it comes to designing everyday products like notebooks. We add unique twists that are both enjoyable and useful until the very last page.
