만약 내가 문방구를 연다면
(계속된 브랜드서치가 이루어지겠지만)
Research Oval 처럼 꾸준히 리서치하고,
Making The Regional Assembly of Text 또는 Field Notes 처럼 직접 문구류 디자인 및 제작하고,
Quality Midori 가 만드는 종이처럼 수준높은 퀄리티 컨트롤,
Curation Point of View 또는 boston general store처럼 나만의 큐레이션으로 매장을 선보일 것이다.
Oval
Seoul

(This place is a hidden gem, and it seems the shop owner prefers to keep a low profile. During my visit, I got the impression that they specialize in sophisticated and rare items not commonly found elsewhere.) Instagram
Kurukynki
Malaysia
(small business, I think Kyn is based in the US but mayeb I’m wrong? Kyn makes great stamps - vintage!) Instagram
