About

ONE BAD DAY was founded in 2021 by London-based illustrator and designer, Oscar Ling-Cottey. What began as a series of simple, hand-drawn illustrations has since developed into a small business comprising clothing and printed artwork.

The brand centres itself around the mantra that no matter who you are, we all have at least one bad day in our lives. This universally-shared experience is what connects us as human beings and subsequently allows us to find humour in unfortunate circumstances. As Charlie Chaplin once said, “Life is a tragedy when seen in close-up, but a comedy in long shot.”
