Julia Kostreva's 'Golden Year' stationary collection features notebooks, any year planners and calendars that will appeal to those with an appreciation for graphic design and typography. The San Francisco-based designer looks to [nature for her inspiration](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/supernatural) and creates topography-themed stationary supplies that make staying organized fun.

Experimenting with organic motifs and interesting uses of color, the artist creates a visually striking collection of paper products. Her range is available both on her website and on web shops like Need Supply and Wide Eyed Legless.

She is mostly inspired by the [Californian seascape](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shells-shimmer-seafoam) and often references blue waves and rocky landscapes when creating her stunning graphics. Her gorgeous stationary supplies are not only aesthetically striking, but they're also priced at an affordable rate.
