About Maritera​

Maritera is an Istanbul-based, online-only stationery design studio catering to both private individuals and corporate clients. Our studio offers a diverse array of paper goods, including greeting cards, invitations, place cards, table numbers, save-the-dates, calendars, and wrapping papers. Additionally, we provide business cards and packaging materials to meet corporate needs.

At Maritera, we adhere to the motto of designing for “cheerful moments,” setting the tone for what guests can expect at any occasion worth celebrating. We firmly believe that stationery creates the initial and most significant impression for an event, product, or gift. Therefore, we prioritize excellent design, high-quality materials, meticulous printing processes, and exceptional service.

In our pursuit of the highest quality and best design, we offer our customers the option of full customization. For custom designs, we thoughtfully consider every aspect of the stationery, including colors, style, and atmosphere, tailoring each piece to our clients’ specific needs.

About Ceylan

Born and raised in Istanbul, Ceylan Yazıcıoğlu founded Maritera in 2015.

Throughout her university years, Ceylan explored various fields, from fashion buying to editorship and fashion marketing. However, while working as an editor for a wedding website in 2008, she noticed a lack of high-quality stationery with exceptional design. This discovery inspired her to take a bold step, leaving her career in finance behind to pursue her passion for design by starting her own business.

Seeking to refine her craft and expand her skill set, Ceylan enrolled in the Graphic Design program at the California Institute of Arts and the Digital Illustration program at Central Saint Martins. Additionally, she has pursued various educational opportunities through institutions like General Assembly.
