Autumn in Japan. First Impressions.
This collection is a tribute to the majestic beauty of Japan, a country we had long dreamed of visiting.
Every moment of the journey revealed new sources of inspiration, from the seamless blend of ancient tradition and sleek modernity to the profound respect the people have for nature, culture, and one another.
The harmony of contrasts—where bustling urban centres coexisted with serene, untouched landscapes—left an indelible mark. We were moved by the quiet efficiencies in everyday life and the tranquility that could always be found, even amidst the bustling energy of the city.
Each pattern in this collection reflects these impressions, capturing the essence of a place where peace and beauty exist in perfect balance.
Concept embroidery, textile and product pieces were created to explore how these designs can be reimagined with depth, texture, and materiality.
They form part of our licensing and bespoke collaboration portfolio, offering glimpse into how the collection may translate across surfaces and applications.
