Greeting Card Catalogue 2014
Ruka-Ruka is a boutique print studio specialising in original, custom-made, graphic art prints. We pride ourselves on our bold, honest and playful designs and our commitment to excellence in every detail. In Autumn 2013, we launched our start up range of greeting cards – major stockists include the Design Museum Shop, Conran Shop and a handful of independent retailers. A small family business, we carefully print all of our products here in the UK using high-quality FSC certified paper stocks and environmentally responsible printing methods. About Sinéad: Having worked as a designer in London since 2006, Irish born graphic artist and illustrator Sinéad Gray began creating a print range under the studio name Ruka-Ruka following the birth of her first child in 2010. A midnight carnival, city-scapes, typewriter robots, toy building blocks stamped in screen print ink - Sinéad’s designs appeal to adults and children alike. Much inspiration comes from childhood toys, books and games - "The Eames House of Cards, the fabrics of a handmade patchwork quilt, beautifully illustrated storybooks given to me by my grandparents, these patterns and images among others captivated my imagination as a child and continue to do so. We owe our children something more than a sea of garish plastic to feed their curiosity." Sinéad now lives and works in North Norfolk with her husband and two young children. Publications who have featured Ruka-Ruka include: Print & Pattern Kids (Book), House Beautiful Magazine, Living Etc., My Child Magazine, ApartmentTherapy.com, Ohdeedoh.com, Babyccinokids.com, Dailycandy.com, PrintPattern.com
