Red Boy and Blue Boy

Warhol × Koons energy. Stick-arm soul.

License the boys. Print the joy.

Two round ambassadors. One red. One blue. Landmarks in black ink. Paris, London, Monaco, Tokyo, New York energy on tour. Put them on stuff people fight over in museum shops — chrome mugs, Factory grids, drop tees, inflatable toys, luxury trash bags, stickers that colonise laptops.

Why license these two

Reasons so good they almost bounce

Instant recognition

Round face. Stick arms. One pure colour. You spot them across a gift shop before you finish saying “wait—”. That is brand gold wearing a cartoon smile.

Joy as a product

Serious landmarks. Unserious boys. The joke lands in every language. People buy the feeling — then take it home on a postcard.

Dual-character dual-use

Red for fire energy. Blue for cool champ. Pair them. Split them. His-and-hers. Team A and Team B. One license, two personalities, endless SKUs.

Museum / tourist kitsch — done right

Eiffel. Notre-Dame. Fuji. Meiji. Monaco Palace. Liberty vibes. The boys already did the tour. Your shop just needs the shelf.

Kids and adults

Children want the grin. Grown-ups want the wink. Same artwork. Two wallets. Birthday aisle meets design-store cool.

Instagram candy

Flat colour. Bold outline. Landmark silhouette. Feed-ready. Unbox shots write themselves. Hashtags practically cartwheel in.

Christmas & birthday gift engine

Stocking fillers that don’t feel like filler. Cards that don’t look like homework. Cakes that make the photographer cry happy tears.

Brand collab magnet

Hotels. Airlines. Energy drinks. Sock brands. Museum shops. Skate decks. The boys play nice with partners who like a loud, friendly face.

Get one product right. Then license the rest.

Tees, hoodie + shelves — outline only, one boy each

Two hero tees plus a hoodie (quality bar) and a full merch grid. One boy per shirt. Coloured outline only — face and body stay unfilled so the fabric shows through. Full puffy hands. No double act on one chest. This is the print standard; other SKUs follow this rule.

The deal, playfully

Real rights. Real territories. Real fun.

Licensing is proper business — categories, territories, exclusivity, term, approvals — dressed in stick arms and bright paint. We keep the copy playful. The paperwork is grown-up.

Zoia Skoropadenko is the artist behind the brush. Clem Chambers co-drives the series and handles licensing sales. Want mugs in Japan, socks in the EU, or a global energy-drink face? Ask.

  • Categories — apparel, gifts, stationery, food packaging, digital, whatever makes people smile.
  • Territories — one country, one continent, or the whole cartwheel.
  • Exclusivity — ask. Sometimes yes. Sometimes shared with a wink.
  • Approvals — the boys stay on-brand. No grumpy recolour. No humour lobotomy.

Put the boys on the shelf.

The paintings live on canvas. The smile can live everywhere else — if you license it.
