Melk Art & Design

• Co-Founder / Illustrator

  • Aug 2006 - Present

  Melk is a line of hand-crafted goods designed and illustrated in Vancouver, utilizing reclaimed and sustainably sourced materials. Each piece is carefully milled, etched, cut, or screen-printed with a timeless illustration. Our work and design is a reflection of this beautiful place we live in, inspired by nature, current events, culture and exploration. Melk offers an arresting line of hand-made cuffs, belt-buckles, artwork, prints and limited edition pieces. This body of work is a collaboration of designer and illustrator Chrystale Thompson and product designer Jeremy van Nieuwkerk. The concept of up-cycling plays heavily into the inspiration for each piece, as materials are reclaimed then re-purposed into limited edition, hand-crafted works of art.
