This week on Makers, we chatted with Afra Chen, the creator of theCORGILAND.
TheCORGILAND was started in 2015 with just a few stickers, but Afra has expanded the product line to include stickers, blankets, floormats, pillows, and more!
Afra’s two corgis, Guoguo (red) and Dongdong (tri-color), were her original inspirations. She says, “Guoguo’s naughty eyes, funny butt wiggles and his giant ears fuel my ideas and designs. Before I had him in my life, I never fully understood the obsession between people and their pets.”
We totally understand the obsession… Just look how precious they are!
Afra is an art editor at a newspaper company by day, and corgi illustrator by night. Her favorite illustration so far is of a Queen Corgi. Fun fact, she originally majored in fashion design. She is currently working on illustrating more corgi poses and gestures, so be on the lookout for new things soon!
