Our Story

SQUARES was founded in 2024 as Drew and Minji's creative playground. Our products are inspired by nostalgia and our special interests (e.g., ghost cats). Together, we personally handle every step—from designing and prototyping to producing and shipping—right from our studio in Seattle, Washington.

 

Did you know there are penguins in Antarctica who gift each other shiny pebbles? We relate with these penguins, because we also love to give our friends small gifts to convey different feelings. Oftentimes, it's difficult for us to articulate in words how we feel, even to those we have known for years. The small action of gifting conveys, "I was thinking of you; I hope you like it". We hope that our products can be enjoyed and shared by more people.

 

Your purchase directly supports an Asian-American owned small business.

We donate 10% of our profits to local organizations.

Donations this season will be made to the Rainier Valley Food Bank in South Seattle, Washington (https://www.rvfb.org/). The Rainier Valley Food Bank serves a community that is 70% BIPOC and 40-50% immigrant or refugees by providing dignified and culturally appropriate access to food and other services.
