Catchy Sights

A Love Letter to Leuven...

We create illustrated gifts that celebrate the beauty, spirit, and stories of Leuven.

Leuven Gift Postcard Series featuring colorful, artistic illustrations blending fantasy and reality. Perfect for mailing, gifting, or decorating your space

Born from a Love for Local

Catchy Sights began as a small market stand in Leuven, inspired by a simple idea: to turn everyday city scenes into meaningful mementos. What started with a few postcards has grown into a full collection of illustrated gifts—each one capturing a little piece of this place we call home.

Illustrated Gifts Rooted in Place

Our range includes posters, postcards, coasters, keychains, magnets, notebooks, and more. All are illustrated by local artists and screen-printed, stitched, or pressed by hand in small batches. We focus on thoughtful, practical products that people can actually use—and cherish.

We Make Memories You Can Hold

We believe souvenirs shouldn’t be throwaway items. They should feel like little pieces of a place—stories you can take home, gift to others, or keep close. Everything we make is rooted in local culture, artistic expression, and a deep love for Leuven.

Made With Intention

Sustainable by Design

Sustainability isn’t an afterthought — it’s at the core of every decision we make:

  • We never use single-use plastics.
  • Our products are designed to last and be reused.
  • Local deliveries in Leuven happen by bike when possible.
  • We favour eco-conscious materials like organic cotton, acid-free paper, and non-toxic inks.
  • Packaging is kept minimal to reduce waste.

Empowering Local Makers

Every design reflects real places, moments, and stories from Leuven. We collaborate with artists and creatives who live or have spent time in the city — people who understand what makes it feel like home.

For the manufacturing of our products, we partner with women’s cooperatives to ensure the ethical production of each item.

Creative with Purpose

We work with local illustrators to bring familiar places to life in original and meaningful ways.

From historic landmarks to small, everyday moments — our designs aim to capture the soul of a city with care and creativity.

The Artists Behind the Illustrations

At Catchy Sights, every design begins with a pencil, a pen, or a brush in the hands of a local artist. Each brings their own vision of Leuven to life—one landmark, street corner, or character at a time.

These are some of the creatives behind the illustrations, the people who make our city come alive in print.
