More About This Artist...
Simone Legno is the creative director and co-founder of tokidoki. Born in Rome, Italy, Legno, drew incessantly as a child. The boxes of chewed, broken and unsharpened pencils he adored as a kid were the beginnings of a passion for art that led to the eventual creation of tokidoki, Legno’s online portfolio of the same name.
tokidoki means “sometimes” in Japanese. Legno, who has always had a deep love of Japan and fascination with world cultures, chose the word because he feels “everyone waits for moments that change one’s destiny, by chance or by meeting a new person”. Simone's special moment arrived when his designs drew the attention of entrepreneurs Pooneh Mohajer and Ivan Arnold, who spied the art on his personal website and convinced him to move to L.A. to start up a dynamic new partnership with them.
Simone has been a sought-after speaker around the world at museums, universities and conferences, from MOCA (the Geffen Museum-Los Angeles) to the Adobe MAX conference, UCLA, USC, the Flash Film Festival in San Francisco, Istituto Europeo di Design in Rome, Grafika Manila and many others.
tokidoki has built a worldwide following with its larger-than-life characters and designs. The brand’s cult status has fueled high-profile collaborations with Karl Lagerfeld, LeSportsac, Onitsuka Tiger, Marvel, New Era, Hello Kitty, Fujitsu, Levi's, Smashbox cosmetics, Xbox, T-mobile, Fornarina, Skullcandy and Medicom Toy.
“tokidoki is the hope, the hidden energy that everyone has inside, It gives us the strength to face a new day and dream about something positive and the hope that something magical will happen to us.” - Simone Legno

We ship Worldwide with FedEx.
We ship all art and artware Internationally using FedEx - this means that your prints, cushions or even an eyemask is fully tracked until it arrives at it's destination. It also means that when it leaves us it just takes a couple of days Worldwide. But please remember we print all our art prints and canvas prints on demand to your specification - that takes around 10-12 working days - but if FedEx ship there so do we!
All your import duties are paid!
Not only do we ship worldwide as inexpensively as we can, but that shipping cost also covers any customs and excise duty. So there are no nasty surprises when your item arrives to you.
Hahnemühle Paper & Canvas used on ALL our Limited Edition Prints.
We are now using Hahnemühle paper and canvas for all our limited edition prints. Widely regarded as the World's best paper we use Photorag 308gsm as standard for all our paper prints and 400gsm Hahnemühle Daguerre Fine Art Canvas for our printed boxed canvas. As a result our Art prints are better than ever - colours are even richer and deeper with even more precision and detail. All our prints are a flat matt finish - looking as close to Original Art as possible. All items are manufactured and lovingly hand finished in the UK.
New limited edition art print sizes.
Due to demand we have increased the size options of our Limited Edition art prints and printed canvases. We have added a huge A0 841mm x 1189mm paper print at £139 and also an A4 Contemporary Framed print - this has an external frame size of 330 x 417mm / 13" x 16.5”.
