Product Insights
9 Moods Art Print, from Paper Collective's family brand MADO (Japanese for 'window,' meant to give children insight and outlook), is a feelings-recognition tool by All The Way To Paris, a studio founded by Royal Danish Academy-trained designers whose collaborations include HAY and &Tradition. Nine mood faces, each with a distinct color and printed label (cobalt, red-orange, green, navy, pale pink, mustard), sit as flat circles on a light background, keeping the visual airy rather than saturated while helping children name emotions. Archival quality comes from a 12-color pigment giclée on acid-free paper that, behind UV-filtering glass, retains color for over a century, and at least 15% of each sale goes to a designer-chosen charity (the program has built a school in Nepal). Both in-stock sizes share the same Assorted colorway, but the main tradeoff is scale: the 30x40 cm costs 90 CAD, suits close-up spots like desks, yet shrinks mood-name type to about 60% and may need custom framing; the 50x70 cm adds 20 CAD, nearly triples the area, fits standard frames, keeps labels legible across a room, and delivers clearly better per-square-centimeter value.
Verified claims
- Studio background
- Founded in 2004 by Royal Danish Academy-trained designers, All The Way To Paris later designed for HAY and &Tradition.
- Design philosophy
- The studio's designs eliminate the unnecessary to express emotions through colours and shapes.
- Emotional literacy
- Nine mood faces work as a feelings chart that helps children recognize and name emotions.
- Charitable giving
- At least 15% of each sale goes to charity; the programme has built a school in Nepal.
- Frame compatibility
- The 50x70 cm size costs CAD 20 more, is about 2.9x the area, and fits standard frames; 30x40 cm may need custom framing.
- Material
- 12-colour giclée on acid-free paper, rated 80 years colour-fast behind UV-filtering glass.
- Family art brand context
- MADO, Paper Collective's family-art brand, means window in Japanese and is meant to give children insight and outlook.
- Designer provenance
- Created by All The Way To Paris, whose collaborations include HAY and &Tradition.
- Visual density
- Color is confined to nine flat circles and corner letters on a light background, so the print reads airy, not saturated.
- Palette
- The nine mood circles use a saturated multicolor palette on a light background, so the print reads as a colourful accent grid rather than an all-over colour field.
- Color emotion mapping
- Each of the nine mood faces pairs a color with a printed mood label, making the print a feelings-recognition chart.
- Variant colorway
- Both size variants share the same Assorted colorway, so a size change rescales the palette rather than recoloring it.
- Mood labels
- The nine mood names are printed on the artwork itself.
- Legibility
- At 50×70 cm the nine mood faces stay readable from across a room; the 30×40 cm print is better for close-up viewing.
- Longevity
- Colour fidelity lasts 80 years behind glass with UV-filtering, away from direct sunlight.
- Archival framing
- UV-filtering glass in the frame extends the display-life estimate past 120 years.
- Size tradeoff
- The 50 × 70 cm (19.75 × 27.5 in) option is the moderate-size wall-art format and costs 20 CAD more, but prints nearly 3× the area of the 30 × 40 cm (11.75 × 15.75 in) smaller option.
- Design pedigree
- Designed by All The Way To Paris, Royal Danish Academy alumni whose portfolio includes HAY and &Tradition.
- Per-area value
- The 50×70 cm is the value size over the 30×40 cm, at 0.03 vs 0.075 CAD per cm².
- Archival life
- Behind UV-filtering glass, colours hold past 120 years; unframed bright display fades 3–4× faster.
- Ink type
- The 12-colour Giclée print on matte heavy paper is pigment-based, rated 100–200+ years before fading under optimal conditions.
- Scale fit
- The 50×70 cm carries the mood grid across a room; the 30×40 cm suits close-up spots like desks.
- Variant parity
- Both listed sizes are in stock and sold only in the same Assorted colorway.
- Playful graphic motif
- The print is a playful graphic wall-art piece composed of nine stylized circular mood faces in a 3x3 grid, each representing a different mood.
- Frame fit
- The 50 x 70 cm sheet fits standard, widely available European frames, while the 30 x 40 cm size is less common and may require custom framing.
- Edition type
- The print is an open-edition art print, not signed or numbered.
