A few snippets of Isatopia’s HQ! This room that I love is just off our kitchen, overlooking the bay. Originally the space was bare wood and since we painted it white, it feels so much brighter and bigger… I never get tired of working in here! Right now, feeling ready for Autumn and some new creative adventures✨ • • 📸 lovely shots by @josilver__ • • • #isatopia #backtoschool #backtothestudio #studiosnippets #studiophoto #studiotime #inthestudio #studioday #creativestudio #creativeadventures #studiospace #homestudio #workingfromhome #studiolife #studiodesign #workplacedesign #studiorenovation #whitestudio taken in Belfast, Maine by @isatopia_

Coucou👋🏻 it’s been a minute, time for a reintroduction! I’m Isabelle, the designer and French hands behind Isatopia — a stationery brand that began as a small illustration project and is now carried in 500+ shops near and far! 💫 I started out as an interior designer and spent a decade working across Europe before trading city life for the coast of Maine in 2020. Then followed the renovation of an old house I got to design, a very spirited dog named Jolene, and our little Franco-American girl, Olive — and somewhere in the mix, Isatopia was born. 🎉 I ran this small business solo from day one — wearing all the hats, learning as I went, and figuring out how to turn creativity into something sustainable. These days, I’ve been able to bring in some much-appreciated help: a fulfillment center, a business manager, and soon, a studio assistant. I feel lucky to see Isatopia grow beyond me, it’s been both exciting and a welcome relief. 🙌🏻 What I love most about running my own show, is the freedom — no two days are the same, and there’s always something new to create, solve, or stumble through. Each product is designed by me and made in the USA, with the hope of making you smile and spreading a little French Je ne sais quoi… 🥐 Merci for joining this little adventure ♥️ • • • 📸 couldn’t pick one!

Coucou 👋🏻 A little website refresh for Isatopia! We’ve been busy behind the scenes working on a fresh new look (more on that soon!). In the meantime, our little corner of the internet has had a makeover! 💅 A new color palette, illustrated details, playful borders, fun textures, and a little je ne sais quoi, always… 🇫🇷 Come have a look around, and keep an eye out for the heart blink cursor — my personal favorite detail! 👀 ❤️ • ➡️ isatopia.shop • • • • #isatopia #websiterefresh #creativesmallbusiness #stationerybrand #behindthebrand by @isatopia_

A little Vermont escape 🍁🍂 Long weekend spent by the lake, leaf peeping, canoeing, apple picking, and taking in all those incredible autumn colors. There’s no fall like a New England fall! • • • • #isatopia #vermontfall #newenglandfall #leafpeeping #fallfoliage taken in Vermont U.S.A by @isatopia_

The lunch challenge saga 🥪🍎 This year I entered uncharted territory: packing lunch for Olive every day! As a French mum who never grew up with lunchboxes, it’s a whole new adventure… A few weeks in and I’m actually enjoying myself! This little box has become my new daily creative project, complete with a little note from maman 💌 • • • • • #isatopia #lunchboxdiaries #schoollunchideas #lunchboxinspiration #frenchmum by @isatopia_

Life lately 🍎🍂 That magical time somewhere between the last bits of summer and the beginning of fall — back-to-school mornings, apple picking & compote making, outdoor meals while we still can, and watching the colors change… • • • • #isatopia #lifelately #mainelife #fallinmaine #autumndays by @isatopia_

It’s Back to School! 🍎✏️ I can’t quite believe it! This first week got away from me so fast - a new school for Oli, very exciting, and the newness of lunch boxes everyday. It’s been a little chaotic, a lot of fun and we’re slowly finding our rhythm. Here’s to a great school year! 🎒✨ • • • • #isatopia #backtoschool #schooldays #lunchbox #backtoschoolvibes by @isatopia_
