About

Launched in 2014 as a daring detour from their graphic design agency, husband and wife team, Ryan and Leanne Botha, have infused aLoveSupreme with their inspired verve, playful sense of humour and non-negotiable commitment to quality every step of the way.

Elevate the everyday!

Bold and unashamedly bright, our hand-drawn illustrations are the hallmark of every
product we make. Instantly recognisable and always original, they elevate the
ordinary: taking often mundane objects and moments and transforming them into
something more.

Why A LOVE SUPREME?

Our name was inspired by John Coltrane’s jazz album, A Love Supreme. This excerpt from his liner notes continues to inspire us to step outside of the ordinary and use our gifts to bring joy to others. In the words of John himself:

“During the year 1957, I experienced, by the grace of God, a spiritual awakening which was to lead me to a richer, fuller, more productive life. At the time, in gratitude, I humbly asked to be given the means and privilege to make others happy through music. I feel this has been granted through His grace.

All praise to God... his way is in love… it is truly – a love supreme.

This album is a humble offering to Him. An attempt to say “Thank You God” through our work, even as we do in our hearts and with our tongues. May He help and strengthen all men in every good endeavour.”
