Holiyay is a Québec-based puzzle company founded by Hélène Mallette and Mathieu Lachapelle, the creative duo behind the award-winning lifestyle magazine Dinette Magazine.
Born from a deep love of design, storytelling, and slow moments, Holiyay started with a simple idea:
what if puzzles felt as good as they looked?For Hélène, puzzles have always been a quiet ritual — a way to slow down, reset, and find focus in the middle of everyday chaos. But finding puzzles that combined beautiful design with high-quality craftsmanship wasn’t always easy.
So we decided to create our own.
At Holiyay, every puzzle is built with intention — from the artists we collaborate with, to the materials we select, to the overall experience of assembling each piece. We think of our puzzles as small, collectible objects designed to be both satisfying to build and beautiful to look at.
More than just a pastime, we see puzzling as a way to disconnect, refocus, and reconnect — with yourself, or with the people around you.

We produce our designs in small quantities, which means most puzzles are not restocked once they sell out.
Each puzzle is designed a bit like a special edition, making it even more unique.
That said, some designs become classics and may come back in stock — sometimes for a short time, sometimes for longer.
We’re also constantly working on new designs that will be released soon, so there’s always something new on the way 👀
