Atherton Lin is a London-based design partnership whose paper items are sold in international museum shops as well as small independent boutiques. Known for its wistful tone and pop sensibility, the watercolour-based work has been compared to the films of Wes Anderson and the music of Belle and Sebastian.
The annual wall calendar is a consistently best-selling item, encapsulating the narratives and themes that permeate the year’s output of stationery products. For 2012, Atherton Lin grows up just a little to present a contemplative study of the act of walking.
BOOTS ON & READY is the latest installment of the ongoing Atherton Lin narrative, which can be further explored through the paper items, small objects, essays and art projects here.
