Memorento

The loveliest gift for Mum: put her memories in the spotlight

The word MUM made of photos on warm ivory, with “Kiki, Jesse & Mila” below. Framed on the white wall of a sunny kitchen, above a breakfast table with peonies, croissants, strawberries, a teapot and a present with a pink ribbon.

Mum captures every family moment, yet is so often missing from the pictures herself.

Have a look through the photo library on your phone or computer. Who is behind the camera at the birthdays? Who films the first steps on the beach, and who takes the snaps at Christmas dinner? Exactly: Mum. Mums have a magical gift for capturing every special family moment. But the result is that they are far too often missing from the family’s own picture history.

Whether it’s for Mother’s Day, her birthday, or simply because she’s the heart of the family: Mum deserves to be seen. With Memorento you give her a gift that doesn’t just keep her memories, it gives her the leading role. A beautiful artwork made of all the love she has captured over the years: choose the album with the photos she took.

Why a standard Mother’s Day gift doesn’t really touch her

The word MUM made of photos on warm ivory, with “Kiki, Jesse & Mila” below. The same artwork framed, held in two hands.

Be honest: how often does a gift for Mum end up as a bunch of flowers that wilts within a week, or a bath set that disappears into the bathroom cupboard? Mums don’t long for expensive things. They want to feel connected to the people they are there for, day in, day out.

A mosaic artwork in the shape of the word MUM, her initials or her age does exactly that. From a distance it’s a beautiful, stylish piece for the living room. But when she comes closer, she sees the hundreds of moments that made her a mum: the sleepy faces at breakfast, the cuddles, the holidays and the small everyday moments of happiness. That’s when the happy tears come.

Surprise her with a cinematic moment on the sofa

Made with AI

What makes Memorento special is that it doesn’t stop at a poster for the wall. The artwork comes with the Immersive video: a breathtaking, captivating film.

  • The family around the TVImagine switching on the TV on her birthday or on Mother’s Day morning and playing this video. Years of family photos flow together slowly and gently into the word MUM.
  • Reliving it togetherThe whole family sits together on the sofa. The children shout, “Look, that’s me when I was tiny!” and Mum relives all those lovely moments. The gift isn’t just the poster; it’s the warm hour you spend together sharing memories.

Secretly sorted from your Mac, in a few minutes

  • A preview straight away

    In a few minutes you see how the result looks. You can order the poster straight away or have it delivered framed, ready to unwrap.
