Hello,

I’m Sonia, the designer and BADASS maker behind Maison Phoenix.

My small business journey started during summer of 2017.

I had just left a promising corporate career behind to figure out what I really wanted to do in life. It was one of the hardest things I had ever done.

The shop's name comes from the French term "Maison" (home) - a nod to the title of one of my favourite Japanese anime - and "Phoenix". More than once in my life I felt like coming to a dead end but then, similarly to the legendary bird, I somewhat managed to renew myself and raise gloriously to a new beginning.

All of my stationary features my original digital illustrations inspired by nature and by my childhood memories.

I taught myself to sew and I love to create accessories using vibrant and bold print fabrics.

Everything here is either handmade by me in small batches at my home studio (my bedroom!) or in collaboration with trusted suppliers to ensure high quality products with less impact on the environment.

I hope you find something that you love in my little corner of the internet. Please drop me a message if you have any questions, requests or feedback!

Thank you for visiting x
