At Home With Jasmijn

A visit inside the warm, creative world of our very own illustrator & creative: Jasmijn van der Zwaan.

In Jasmijn’s living room you immediately feel her eclectic, playful energy; a space filled with thrifted finds, soft colors and pieces that tell stories. Here, her creative world blends effortlessly into family life.

Before we step into the children’s rooms, we asked Jasmijn about the creative world behind all those magical Archive Store illustrations.

What inspires you, and what has been your favorite project for us?

Here she smiles instantly:“I LOVE working for The Archive Store… brands like Forivor really inspire me… I get a lot of inspiration while riding my bike… My favorite project must be the children’s book we made a few years ago: Archie’s Schitterende Staart… It was really special.”

Curious to bring a little of Jip’s world into your own home?

Cato’s nursery is a room filled with meaning. The soft & gentle pieces that Jasmijn used to set up the cot, make her space feel safe and warm.

“Our number 1 is the Cocoonababy… we advise it to everyone… And the merino wool blanket by Hazel & George… Other favorites are the birth plates by Anouk Kramer… and the alphabet poster that I made myself!”
