We are thrilled to share some of our BK ethos, close to our hearts and lovingly visualized by artist Joni Marriott. Here are six designs represented in these postage stamp-style tapes. We hope you enjoy adding them to your journal pages, an outgoing postcard, or anywhere you feel you can use a small lift in your day. 

About Joni Marriott: 

Joni was born in the wild Berlin in the 1980s. After school, she lived in France, where she also wanted to study art. Since she couldn’t get into any art schools in France, she found her way back to Germany, Saarbrücken, right at the French border. This temporary solution turned into a life, as it often does.

She still happily lives, loves, and works with her family in Saarbrücken. Joni always strives to dive deep into the substance of the subject and add another layer of meaning. Often working with clean lines and a restricted black-and-white color palette, Joni communicates the most surreal and complex of subject matters with finesse. Her superpower is the art of drawing twisted thoughts and surrealist imagery in the most simple way.

Joni has worked with clients including – Greenpeace, The New York Times, De Standaard newspaper, Die Zeit newspaper, Penguin Random House, Teen Vogue, and Urban Outfitters.
