Waterknot
Portland, Oregon
Waterknot makes original illustration and design that celebrate outdoor adventure and inspires discovery. Our humorous and romantic take on getting outside fosters meaningful connection between people everywhere. And really, it's this connection that is the most important part of what we do.
It is our most sincere hope that our cards provide inspiration, humor and the ability to say something you might not have been able to say yourself. We offer peace of mind and hope. We encourage a sense of being and feeling understood. Our words and pictures bring people together with happiness, laughter and love by celebrating each other and the outdoors.
Simply put, Waterknot connects people to each other and to the wild places they love.
What's a waterknot, anyway? A waterknot is used by climbers to tie two pieces of nylon webbing together. Its beauty lies in its strength and simplicity. It is practically fail-safe. The more force applied to pull it apart, the tighter it becomes. We love this as a metaphor for strong, clean design.
