It is done – against yet more odds.

We successfully overcame serious supplier issues and now have a new and even faster super-duper UK-based badge maker.

Another hurdle we are tackling is our unexpected but imminent home and studio move and all that entails. It will be a much larger and brighter space – so we are looking forward to it. London, N1 Cross Street – here we come.

Nothing stopped us once again from pulling off our annual design initiatives. Please do however order rewards, prizes and Christmas goodies asap – ideally before 10 December. It will be a short December for us unfortunately.

Thank you for supporting small independent online shops like Stereohype.

As of last night the latest squirrel is out of the bag:
we announced this year's winners and released a whopping 173 fresh new graphic art products, including button badges, prints and gift boxes.

Also back in stock by popular demand: our themed Advent Calendars with peel-off stickers revealing a daily badge design. We also curated and produced a particularly beautiful and high profile B.I.O. (By Invitation only) Button badge Series 21 and also ran our annual Button Badge Design Competition. Winners and Runners-up are now featured online. You love 4AD and the universe Vaughan Oliver created around his work and vision – and the many talents involved in that? You love typography? Tat? Systems? Experiments? Graphic design? Photography? Pixies? Illustration? Fun? OR neon colours maybe? You might want to check out the latest designs...

A total of 100 new 1"/25mm button badge designs were added to our collection that now includes over 1,700 artworks. 526 of them – including new ones – are also available as 8x10" Button Badge Motif Prints. Sets of 3, 4, 7 and 12 are also available in elegant gift boxes.
