Hello hello! 

I'm Hanaa aka La Plante Carnivore. I'm an Architectural Assistant and a joyful part-time Illustrator. I was born and raised in tropical Mauritius, but have moved thousands of miles to the place I now call home, London. 

It gives me great joy to create playful, cute, funny, bold and colourful illustrations. My work currently features stationery inspired by England's and Mauritius' local flora and fauna, sweet memories and anecdotes from family and friends.

The products are designed and locally produced in the UK while I ensure that the paper products are recyclable, FSC certified (which means that the forest is managed in a way which preserves biological diversity and benefits local residents and workers, while sustaining economic viability), chlorine-free and wood-free. I also use compostable packaging, when necessary, as another small step to help the planet.

La Plante Carnivore started in May 2022, when I was still a student completing my final year of the MArch Architecture course at the University of Greenwich. I had been wanting to start a stationery business at this point in time for a few years, and somehow the stress and pressure from working on my design project pushed me to find solace in designing greeting cards, marking the beginning of La Plante Carnivore!

The brand is a reflection of who I am, always joyful. I aim for my work to bring you a smile. The atypical name of La Plante Carnivore (the carnivorous plant, in French) comes from my fascination of carnivorous plants, as well as reflecting my Mauritian roots. Mauritius, my beautiful home-country, is a multi-lingual island, located in the Indian Ocean, and is a melting pot of different cultures.
