ABOUT
HOW IT STARTED
I couldn’t find a contemporary writing box…
…for all my art cards I love and keep on collecting to use them, together with little gifts or just to express appreciation towards my family or friends.
I decided to create a notebox - simple, easy to handle and made out of natural materials. Together with experienced Swiss artisans, we developed a product that is more than a simple writing box. It became a design object with a lot of fine details. All cards as well as a notebook stored in the box are printed by a small printing company close to where I live.
Honestly, it fills my heart with an extraordinary feeling of joy! I hope you will feel the same while using it.
Warmest regards, Gabriela

Location: Format Guggenbühl, Zurich
I love nature, meeting people and a good design.
I’m aware that time is the most precious resource we have. I see the purpose of life as creating meaningful things that help us to enjoy every single day. That’s what I use my free time for.

"It's not about communicating a vision, it's about touching people through an image." - Ansel Adams
What can you expect from Artdate?
Artdate deals with reality, but gives it a new dimension. It's about a kind of poetic imagery that celebrates the beauty of a moment and the connection between people & nature. Whether implemented in graphical or photographical way is secondary. The idea decides.
