Katerina Kupcova

Hello, my name is Katerina and I am the founder and co-designer of a lifestyle brand called Chic By Pig.

The brand Chic By Pig (otherwords - elegant or chic from a pig) has been set up in 2016, by me and my husband Jan and generally spoken, we design products mainly for kids customers and their parents who do not want to accept boring standard products sold everywhere - spoken our philosophy - we do it "Simple but fun."

Besides interior and product design, like kids furniture, toys, kids room accessories and fashion, we decided that we want to bring something also to parents.

So we made a "Hoggy's Strong Coffee." (in czech "Kafe jako prase.") - coffee made really individually on our
taste base - strong and not acid. So coffee that each parent definitelly need to "survive" with their little "terrorists." :-) and bring the "cafe" home. In addition to it, we wanted to make our logo cups and we did it. However, we still need more designs, more colors, even gold - and eventhough we talked with productions not only in the Czech Republic but also in Italy or Romania, there was always some obstacle to get our wished design - either the cup was not nice for us or the producer said that our design is complicated and cannot produce it. So we made a little detective work to find out how we could help ourselves and we found this course on Domestika.

We hope this can help us to widen our range not only in a matter of coffee cups but also plates, bowls for kids or a families daily use.

I hope I made a brief summary what brought us to the course, what we expect and what we do.

The whole brand story and products you can read on our websites and find us even on FB or Instagram.

Cheers,

Katerina
