The Artist

Soil&Co started as Soil Design, which is a boutique graphic design and illustration studio based in Cape Town which is recognized for it’s classical designs and artwork. This enthusiastic design company was formed by sisters, Kara and Mieke Wertschnig, one being a graphic designer and the other an illustrator with collective expertise in identity, print, packaging, textiles, maps and the African environment.

“Our inspiration came up from being brought up in a home surrounded by botanical artwork on the wall.”
