The Designs in My Shop, One by One

Every design in my shop starts with a line or a feeling you've probably had at 2 a.m. Here's a walk through the collection, so you know what you're looking at before you pick one.

What are the gothic ones?

• Put Me In Hell: blackletter type, two dark flowering branches and an X-eyed smiley face, with And I'll See You There underneath.
• Emotionally Offline: a cracked old computer screen wrapped in chains, with Do not disturb in script. For the days you are not taking calls.
• Introverts Social Club: worn western-style lettering for a club whose members would rather not meet.

What are the pastel ones?

• Lost In Thought: dripping letters, a cartoon brain bursting through clouds and daisies, and the thoughts floating around it: Did I forget to lock the door?, I gotta feed my cows, What color should I dye my hair next?
• High Key Stupid, Low Key Genius: wobbly mint lettering in a bunch of daisies.
• You're Loved: the words twice, once in green and once flipped upside down in yellow.

What's Otto?

In 2023 I launched my clothing brand, Otto By Kris, and Otto shows up in a few designs here: a stitched Otto By Kris script, and a big striped Otto with a lightning bolt and the line Never Fit In. Never Plan To.

And the portrait?

A painted portrait with blonde waves and a gold splash behind it, with KALLMEKRIS in tall red letters underneath.

How do you choose?

• Go by the line: pick the one you'd actually say.
• Go by the mood: gothic for the dark jokes, pastel for the soft chaos.

Every design comes in several styles on black or white. See them all in the shop.
