I love the beauty of Indigenous syllabics, a distinctive set of symbols created to transcribe many of Canada’s Indigenous languages. But as an Indigenous woman in urban Canada, I rarely heard the language of my ancestors, let alone saw syllabics used outside of rare occurrences in museums and history books.
Welcome to our store! Explore our unique collection, inspired by creativity and designed with care.
OUR STORY
Our journey began in June 2021 with a simple yet powerful moment of inspiration. While walking through downtown Tkaronto, I noticed a design on a passerby’s shirt. At first glance, I thought the symbols were syllabics, but as I got closer, I realized it was just a triangle. That moment sparked an idea—a vision for a brand that puts syllabics at the forefront and creates mainstream visibility for Indigenous languages.
From that spark, our brand was born. We’ve since grown into a place where creativity, culture, and minimalism come together. Each design tells a story, captures a feeling, or represents a moment of discovery. Our goal is to create pieces that inspire curiosity and connect with people on a deeper level.
