Kameocrafts

I live in Ghent a city known for it’s medieval center, handmade mustard, cuberdons, and much more.I’ve been crafting and drawing ever since I can remember.

After studying Landscape architecture and urban design in Ghent, I studied painting at the academy in the same city. Next to my job as an urban planner and landscaper, I love to draw, paint and design products. I also have always been very fascinated by nature.

I’ve been searching a long time for a style, an identity that fits me. I love to paint, draw or illustrate wildlife but not in a perfect way. I don’t try to put everything in, I try to leave everything out. I look at the animal or plant and try to bring it back to simple shapes and forms. You could call it minimal realism. It’s the perfect style for me combining my passion for facts and biology with my need to create artistic images.

Kameocrafts aims to produce beautifully designed, contemporary postcards, fabrics and interior accessories, all originating from unique illustrations. We work from our countryside studio, bordering the city of Ghent.

We love making illustrations and designs, developing new ideas and seeing them grow into designs is exciting. Nature has a big influence on our work; a simple leaf or flower has so many beautiful qualities of line, shape, colour and texture. We also love Scandinavian design which is marked by its simplicity, clean lines and organic forms.

We believe ecological issues are important, and that our work should have as little negative impact on the environment as possible; therefore all our products are produced in the most ecologically friendly way. Our entire range is PEFC certified which means that the paper products used promote the sustainable management of forests.

All products are made in Belgium. We try our utmost to support our local community and strongly believe in supporting the local manufacturing industry.
