Pui is a freelance graphic designer and illustrator based in London, with a playful and graphic approach. A conceptual thinker developing creative concepts and directions to the finished product or campaign.

Scout Editions are an art studio based in London.  A brother and sister collective - Wai and Pui. A design and illustration - led paper and lifestyle brand. Both are keen travellers and share a love of art, design, fashion and interiors. With a love of storytelling and folklore they decided to create a space inspired by stories. The idea of an item having a story of its very own be it from the past or the present, making it the perfect collectable and gift. 

Each item on Scout Editions is created by the two and sometimes they collaborate with fellow designers and brands. Many are limited editions or part of a series, so catch them while you can! They enjoy experimenting with formats and techniques to bring a unique item which will hopefully make great mementos for years to come. All paper goods are printed on quality FSC certified paper, UK. Where possible they try our best to produce our products in the UK also using recycled materials and printing with vegetable or water based inks.
