A little about the pencil
Little Pencil began at a kitchen table with a sketchbook, a jar of pencils, and the conviction that ordinary paper can carry something true. Every project starts by hand — thumbnails, lettering, botanical studies — before anything is drawn on a screen.
The result is design that feels collected rather than manufactured: warm palettes, honest type, and small drawn details you only notice the second time you look.
