About Designed by Islay

Edinburgh based Designed by Islay was born out of a love of an eclectic selection of passions; design, colour, wild swimming and the Scottish language. The collection includes colourfully typeset Scottish sayings, new, old and original and illustrated wild swimming and SUP greeting cards, prints and mugs. We have being selling wholesale for 18 months and proud to be stocked in over 20 shops in Scotland. We aim to be as sustainable as possible and greeting cards and prints are printed on 100% recycled stock and are wrapped in biodegradable and compostable cello wrappers. The cards come with a 100% recycled kraft envelope. Read their story
