La Doëlanaise paper goods

Based in Le Pouldu, Clohars-Carnoët (Brittany), Cécile Ollier a.k.a. La Doëlanaise produces prints and stationery drawn from the Breton coast. A former graphic designer, she launched her imprint in 2023, translating linocuts into postcards, notebooks, and other paper goods.
Her stark black-and-white compositions – Mamm-gozh, seagulls, coastal views – stem from a slow, hands-on engraving process, later refined digitally without losing their raw edge.
Type is central to the system. Ollier uses faces from the Breton foundry Skritur, especially Kornog, whose angular, decorative forms reference the Art Deco vocabulary of the Seiz Breur. The small type is also available from Skritur: it’s Brito.
Designed, printed, and largely produced in Brittany, the work ties together image, type, and place.
