Melding Portland Vibes with Japanese Heritage
We are proud to partner with Diana Aalberg, the visionary founder of All Burn Wax. Her hand-poured, organic soy candles and scents, including those inspired by our stop-motion animation films, are created in the heart of NW Portland. Infused with a unique blend of Portland and Japanese aesthetics, these candles pay homage to her home and ancestry.

Art-i-Fact #7
Coraline has 9 outfit changes throughout the film Coraline (including a pink skirt made with stretchy, hand-dyed lycra fabric and multi-color embroidery)—more than any other character in any LAIKA film to date.
Art-i-Fact #9
This beetle print—a test swatch made from bamboo glued onto kimono fabric in strips—is inspired by the Japanese rhinoceros beetle, or kabutomushi (kabuto means “helmet” and mushi means “bug”).
Art-i-Fact #8
Mr. Link’s plaid suit is a nod to Northwest clothing conventions of the day, as well as weaving history, specifically the textile manufacturing companies White Stag and Pendleton, which were established in Oregon during this time period.
Art-i-Fact #10
Finding the pattern for Sir Lionel's houndstooth suit involved collaborating with an expert weaver to meticulously establish the size, shape, and color tones of the interlocking shapes, ultimately reflecting his modern, fashion-forward sensibilities with rich blues and yellows.
Art-i-Fact #5
Eggs’ sweater was made using a couching technique, where different weights of threads dyed various shades of green were sewn onto a stretchy mesh backing, giving it a dimensional, worn-in look.
