Profile

Kars + Boom is a design studio creating illustrated stories through playful products, objects, installations and prints. Driven by a desire to move beyond everyday reality, we design environments and objects that feel both familiar and dreamlike. Our work allows brands, spaces and people to tell stories in a more playful, tactile and visual way. Whether it’s a graphic print, an installation or a product, each piece is an invitation to pause and wander. We are inspired by landscapes and cities by their geometry, rhythms and hidden patterns. By translating these elements into lines, shapes and structures, we create new worlds where order and imagination meet. Worlds we don’t just design, but genuinely wish to wake up in.
