the drawings
The ideas and inspiration behind LAKOR’s designs always come from nature.
Every design begins as a sketch, drawn with the very same mechanical pencil Lasse has used since his school days.
Once the sketches are finished, they are inked with a fineliner and coloured by hand.
The 3 drawing styles
Watercolour
Many of LAKOR’s designs are hand-painted in watercolour – and because our designer Lasse is colour-blind, this sometimes leads to exciting and unexpected colour choices.
Line drawings
Some of LAKOR’s designs are line drawings full of details to explore. These designs use no colour, giving them a calmer feel.
Magical and vibrant nature
This drawing style takes inspiration from Japan, giving things that cannot usually speak a voice of their own – such as wandering chanterelles and outraged fly agarics.

the story behind
the otter way
Most otters keep to well-defined territories and tend to follow the same trails over and over again. The otter on this design, however, was brave enough to wander off into uncharted forest paths… but not blessed with the sense of direction needed to get back home.
the story behind
seaparrot summerhouse
Puffins do migrate, but unlike many other birds, they don’t simply head south. Instead, they drift pelagically across the open Atlantic.
The story behind
No Catch
Not all days are awesome, even for a King Penguin. Some days the fish bite, other days it is frost bites. But nothing can really shoot down a bird that cannot fly. This King Penguin is positive that tomorrow the fish will finally bite.
