Our Story

About DK+L Sydney

DK+L Sydney is a lifestyle store and original design label — a place where thoughtful design, beautiful gifting and the spirit of this city come together.

Located in the heart of The Rocks, Sydney, we bring together an edited collection of baby, children's and women's pieces alongside art, illustrations and gift-ready treasures — all chosen with care, and many designed in-house.

Our shelves hold the work of Australian designers we believe in, alongside our own DK+L Originals: pieces created right here in Sydney that carry a little of this place wherever they go.

The Founder

DK+L Sydney was founded by Magdalena, a designer and illustrator with a deep love for colour, place and the quiet creativity of everyday life.

Inspired by the contrast of Sydney's two worlds — the wildness of Bundeena and the Royal National Park, and the energy of The Rocks and Sydney Harbour — Magdalena designs clothing, artwork and gifts that feel rooted in this landscape.

Her philosophy is simple: things made with care carry a different kind of beauty.

Our Store

The Rocks sits at the heart of historic Sydney, steps from the harbour. It welcomes visitors from around the world — many discovering DK+L Sydney while exploring the cobblestone streets between Circular Quay and the Harbour Bridge. For many, it's the place they find something to take home that no one else will have.

A Place for Community

For us, DK+L Sydney has always been more than a shop.

It is a space where design, childhood and community meet — where gifts are wrapped with care, stories are shared, and beautiful objects begin their journey into someone’s home.
