Chef's Kiss but Paper

We are a design-led print studio redefining how paper feels, looks, and behaves. Our name comes from the signature gesture a chef makes when celebrating the perfect flavor. For us, it symbolizes the moment where craft, texture, and emotion meet in harmony. With every product, we try to recreate that very moment. As the heir to three generations of printing mastery, Chef’s Kiss but Paper carries the artisan production principles passed down from grandfather and father, adapting them to today’s culture. Led by a graphic designer and female founder who grew up playing with papers and inks among printing machines, our goal is to make every piece feel as personal as the hands that use it. For that, at Chef’s Kiss but Paper, we are inspired by the art and contradictions of being a human: order and chaos, serenity, colors, purity and the beautiful imperfection that makes us perfect already. Every piece we design and print in our own atelier, shaped by our obsession with detail and our curiosity for human stories, becomes more than a desk accessory; it behaves like a mirror that reflects the personality of its owner.
