About the studio

Calypso is a boutique print design studio founded by Elly Joel that creates original textile print designs for fashion and interiors.

Elly brings more than 20 years experience in the fields of art, design and fashion to the creative direction of the studio.

Collections are concise and carefully edited, and created with loving attention to detail. With an emphasis on creativity, innovation, longevity and luxury, Calypso designs will bring a fresh and distinctive edge to any application.

Motifs are hand painted in the studio, scanned and digitized and then artfully arranged in balanced layouts and seamless repeats.

3 ways to shop prints

  1. THE PRINT LIBRARY: for exclusive, premium, trend-driven and fashion forward designs.

    Brands and designers who want exclusive ownership of prints can shop from hundreds of designs in the Print Library. These designs are provided as layered files that are ready to print, with at least 2 colorways (spring/summer and fall/winter). Register here for access.

  2. LIMITED LICENSE: perfect for small runs or small budgets.

    These designs are non-exclusive but limited to 5 seats - once the design has been licensed by 5 separate clients it will be removed from the collection and no longer available. Shop here.

  3. CUSTOM DESIGN: for bespoke design development.

    Simply send us a brief and answer a few questions and we’re away! You will approve the design in stages to ensure the perfect print for your needs. Get in touch for more information.
