Who we are

Dupenny was founded in 2009 by Emily Dupen-Hopkins, and is based by the sea in Brighton, UK.

We spend our days thinking up curious themes, doodling pretty pictures and above all loving what we do.

Our inspirations

On a mission to make the world smile, the inspiration for Dupenny's designs comes from all things cheeky. We especially like retro themes, curious humour, lovely ladies, and the simple impact of black and white.

Our products

The essence of Dupenny is high quality and attention to detail - every Dupenny product is made with love and care from start to finish. Designs are initially hand-drawn before being finalised on a computer.

Our wallpapers are digitally printed but we are also able to hand screen-print them according to your requirements, whilst all our homewares and ceramics are hand screen-printed.

Unlike our larger competitors, we do not mass produce vast amounts of stock at a time and have it shipped over from far away lands. Instead we prefer to make our products right here in the UK to ensure unrivalled quality, and to support the local economy.

Our ethos

At Dupenny we believe in fun design with a conscience. We use only the best materials along with traditional printing and manufacturing techniques to provide products of the highest calibre.

Wherever possible, we use sustainable materials, right down to the packaging our products come in. There is no excuse for unnecessary waste so we recycle as much as we can.
