Other products capture Wu and Lee’s own experiences, like a line of pencils and notebooks named The Blue: Ocean and Wood (the blue 海&木). The natural wood casing of the pencils were inspired by the color and texture of driftwood, while the cover of each notebook features a painting of a seascape.
“The notebook covers are meant to evoke the feeling we had when we went to the ocean side. Watching the sea gives you a different feeling each time. It can be carefree or sad. It might help you reflect on things or make you feel lonely,” says Wu.
Other items in the Leewu line include small raffia fabric containers that users fold themselves with the aid of cords in each corner, hand-sewn cloth bags, and a line of letter paper and envelopes called Avowal of Love.
“We create a lot of our items for our own pleasure, but we also hope that our stuff will also be seen as practical and useful by our customers,” says Wu.
