get to know us
Hello from Greta and Becky, the creative souls behind k.arti! We're the sister duo who share a deep love for all things paper, stationery, and design. Our dream has always been to create a local studio that harmonizes these passions and allows us to share our creativity with fellow stationery and design enthusiasts like you.
Ever since we can remember, we both always had a creative bug – from creating doodles in our friend’s diaries at school to crafting heartfelt birthday cards for our mum and dad, we found joy in bringing our imagination to life on paper. As we grew, our love for design continued to shape our paths - countless hours studying and honing our skills to become design architects helped us gain so many valuable qualities which now form the backbone of k.arti.
Today, as the co-founders of k.arti, our journey has come full-circle. We’ve transformed a little dream of ours into a thriving venture that celebrates the beauty of creating something meaningful.
Thank you for joining us on this incredible journey, for believing in our dream, and for being a part of its growth. We're beyond grateful to share this adventure with all of you!

the studio
As a studio, our desire is to create authentic, high-quality products with unique and eclectic designs which are not only designed locally but are also produced and lovingly crafted right here in Malta. As creators we believe that beauty is all around us and we draw a lot of our inspiration from the local context - experimenting with different mediums and translating our love for our surroundings into hand-drawn and hand-painted illustrations which celebrate the little details that often go unnoticed .
Each artwork then finds its way onto an array of products, leaving a bit of our passion in every piece. Our aim is to curate distinct creations that inspire you to find your unique voice and express your individuality.
our process
Our design process begins with a deep dive into the narrative we want to bring to life, whether it’s capturing the essence of a couple’s wedding day through stationery or the concept behind a new collection. At our heart, we believe that every product we create is a canvas for a story waiting to be told.
Specializing in watercolour and pen and ink illustrations forms the heart of our studio, but we love pushing our creative boundaries, embracing diverse mediums to bring our visions to life. Once our artworks have been created, we transition into a detailed post-production phase. It is here that our artworks find their way to a variety of products, carefully designed to seamlessly blend with the function of each item. This meticulous process ensures that out art enriches each product with a unique, artistic touch.
It's all about the finest details, ensuring that each product mirrors the highest quality and embodies the essence of our brand. We prioritize ethically sourced, and high-quality materials, ensuring that every piece reflects our values and dedication to our craft.
It is such a unique joy to see our original creations transform into everyday treasures, each item becoming a functional piece of art and we are truly grateful that we get to do this every day.
