Hi~ 안녕하세요^^ (Annyeonghasaeyo!). I’m Ari, the founder of Kotelier ^^

Kotelier is a blend of 'Korea' and 'atelier' (French for studio)—reflecting my mission to bring thoughtfully curated works from Korean illustrators and creatives to you. Living outside Korea, I couldn’t easily find the work of my favorite Korean artists — so I started Kotelier to share their charm, creativity, and whimsy.

I personally connect with the artists and handpick each piece, bringing their unique creations to Canada and beyond. From stickers, stationery and cards to journals and little treasures, every item at Kotelier is chosen to inspire, delight, and add a touch of artistry to everyday life.

This little shop is a labor of love, and I’m so grateful for everyone who joins me in this passion. Whether you’re discovering new designs or finding familiar favorites from your visits to Korea, I hope Kotelier brings a sprinkle of wonder and charm to your day.

Thank you ^^
