DRYAD BOOKS x PIGEON

My collaboration with Dryad Books, a bookstore specialising in fantasy and speculative fiction, started in 2024 when they approached me for a new bookmark design with a whimsical character representing the shop.

In 2026, we expanded our collaboration and I was commissioned to design a group of unique characters to feature on the bookshop’s merchandise.
