They’re not all about brilliant art prints though, even with some of their collection having featured on the small screen, showing up in popular TV shows, Tattoo Fixers Extreme and The Circle, where they added a creative touch to the rooms and sets. Their Creative Planner, was named one of the "Best Planners to Have in 2020" by Stylist Magazine. Let’s just say they’re masters of a bold design!
The dream team behind Doodlemoo consists of an illustrator and graphic designer. Emily, one half of the team, grew up in South America whilst the other half, Chris, was raised in England.
Interesting Type And Fierce Words
Doodlemoo is all about big and bold design that works for creating beautiful space in the home. You’ll see lots of brilliant typography in their work.
Typography in print is a popular way to add style and visual interest. It allows designers and creators to express their creativity and communicate ideas in a way that is both visually appealing and easy to read. The right typography can draw out a particular mood or emotion, and can help to convey the tone and message of the content. In Doodlemoo’s case it’s all about making people feel good. They choose bold words and pretty fonts that are absolutely perfect for a gallery wall.
Bright, Bold and Beautiful
Bold colours like pink, black, and white are often used in art because they can create a strong visual impact and evoke certain emotions. Pink is a playful and feminine colour that can add warmth, energy and positivity to a piece. Black is powerful and dramatic. It adds a sense of depth and sophistication. White, on the other hand, is often associated with purity, simplicity, and minimalism.
When used together, these colours can create a striking contrast and balance in an art print. The use of black and white as a background for bright colours like pink can make them stand out even more, creating a dynamic and eye-catching composition.
Doodlemoo has perfected the bold feature colour, using it to create prints that look amazing in the home.
Empowering Art For Anywhere
The prints in Doodlemoo’s collection are empowering and energising, absolutely perfect for an office or study space.
Empowering art can be effective for several reasons. For one, it can inspire and motivate people to take action towards positive change. When we see art that empowers and uplifts, it can give us a sense of hope and a feeling that change is possible. It makes us feel motivated and can inspire us to take action in our own lives.
Empowering art can also provide a sense of validation and representation for those who may feel marginalised or overlooked. Art that celebrates diversity, promotes equality, or showcases the accomplishments of underrepresented groups can help to create a sense of belonging and pride in one's identity.
Special Finishing Touches
One thing that Doodlemoo are very good at is adding that final, extra special touch to a print.
Foil details and high quality printing can really make an art print pop. They add an extra sprinkling of luxury and bring out the best parts of a design. That’s what makes them so brilliant in the home!
