Structured Balance Collection

The products within this collection took a lot of inspiration from the Brutalist architecture movement, striving to elevate and complement surrounding aesthetics. For the visual language of this collection, I took inspiration from the shapes of the products and the infamous brutalist architecture and design principles it was inspired by.

Andean Collection

The designer of this collection took inspiration from her home country of Colombia, celebrating the colors, animals, landscapes, and bright energy of their people. The Andean collection takes the precious details of distant jungles and brings them to the forefront of the home. As a nod to our designer, the visual language of this collection takes inspiration from beautiful artist journals that feature collages, painted memories, and handwritten notes.

Maison en Terre Collection

Entering the mainstream is the idea of warm minimalism, a design ethos characterized by its elegant simplicity. This collection reveres the unexpected intricacies found within materials, colors, and forms it features. The graphic language developed was crafted to accentuate these nuances through the incorporation of distinctive rounded corners, an unconventional grid structure, and an interesting layout.

Home on the Farm Collection

This collection weaves a heartwarming narrative, tapping into the strings of nostalgia. Set in the idyllic surroundings of a bustling farm, a charming community of endearing critters tends to their lush gardens, offering a fresh perspective on traditional spring symbols. The design language that weaves through the collection, catalog, and product packaging draws its inspiration from the blissful ambiance of a sunlit day in grandma's bountiful vegetable garden.
