There are shops you walk into because you need something.And then there are shops you walk into because you want to have a look around.The Lulu Kitololo shop is very much the second kind.
Our shelves are filled with hand-drawn stationery, art prints, cards, notebooks and other little treasures, all designed to bring a bit more beauty and joy into the everyday. You might come looking for a birthday card and leave with a notebook. You might come looking for a gift and find something you decide to keep for yourself.
We understand
A little bit of Lulu, all in one place
The shop is a home for the world we have been creating at Lulu Kitololo Studio: colourful, expressive and proudly rooted in Africa.
Our illustrations begin with Lulu Kitololo's hand-drawn artwork, then find their way onto thoughtfully made objects that are designed to be used, enjoyed and kept.
That means you will find collections inspired by all sorts of things: flora and fauna, women, children, birthdays, nature and the little details that make life worth celebrating.
Some are playful. Some are thoughtful. Some are wonderfully colourful. And some simply make you smile when you see them.
There is no single kind of person they are made for. There is just something for someone.
For gifting. For keeping. For yourself.
One of our favourite things about the shop is watching people discover something unexpectedly perfect.
A card for a friend who deserves a little encouragement.
A notebook for the person who is always writing things down.
A print for an empty wall that needs a little life.
A small gift for someone who is difficult to shop for.
Or something completely unnecessary that you simply cannot leave behind.
We think those are all perfectly good reasons to shop.
Because beautiful things don't always need a grand occasion.
If you've visited before, come see what's new
We are always refreshing the shop.
The layout changes. Collections move around. New products arrive. Old favourites find new places on the shelves.
So if you've been before, consider this your excuse to pop in again.
And if you've never visited, this is your invitation.
Come and see the colours, the illustrations and all the little details for yourself. Take your time. Browse the shelves. Pick things up. Discover a collection you didn't know you needed.
And, hopefully, leave with something that feels a little bit special.
Hand-drawn. Mindfully made. Proudly African.
These three ideas sit at the heart of everything we make.
Hand-drawn, because we believe there is something special about artwork that begins with a person's hand and imagination.
Mindfully made, because the things we surround ourselves with should be worth making, worth using and worth keeping.
Proudly African, because our visual language is informed by the places, people, nature and culture around us. We don't need to look elsewhere for inspiration when there is so much beauty here.
The result is a collection of objects that feel distinctly Lulu Kitololo: joyful, considered, expressive and unmistakably our own.
Come have a look
Whether you're looking for a thoughtful gift, something beautiful for your home, a new notebook, a special card or simply somewhere lovely to browse, we'd love to have you in.
Come for the stationery. Stay for the illustrations. Find something that speaks to you.
And if it does?
Take it home.
