Our Story
"Just remember that every day you live, you make some impact on the planet - you get to choose what kind of impact." - Jane Goodall (zoologist / primatologist)
Introducing
Alpine Koala Brand
Welcome to Alpine Koala, a small studio in a quiet rural township in Country Victoria, Australia.
Founded in 2021, Alpine Koala grew out of a love for animals, the Australian bush, and a slower way of living. We make original nature themed designs, everything from wildlife and wild places to pets, bugs, birds and the night sky, and turn them into pieces worth giving and keeping.
We set aside $3 AUD from every item sold. That money goes toward our dream of buying and protecting koala habitat land, keeping it out of the hands of those who would destroy it. Some designs also support animal rescue and wildlife conservation charities we believe in.
Thank you for being part of it. Every single item sold brings that dream a little closer.
How We Create Our Artwork
Art For Animals
Every design starts here in rural Victoria, with an idea about an animal or a place worth celebrating.
We make these designs using a mix of AI image tools and Photoshop, usually after a lot of versions that didn't work. The tools are modern. What we're drawn to isn't: owls and foxes, mountain ranges, moths and moon phases, forests that look better at night.
And every one of them is helping us save up for a piece of koala habitat to protect, with some designs supporting other animal charities along the way.
Better For The Planet
Made On Demand
Nothing is made until you order it.
Once your order is placed, it is printed and shipped by our trusted production partners across the USA, Canada, Australia, Mexico and Europe. Each item is printed or embroidered just for you.
Making things this way means no overproduction, no warehouse full of unsold stock, and less waste overall. It also means faster local delivery for customers outside Australia, and a brand new item every time rather than something that has been sitting in a box for a year.
