Nature Connects
WORK & WONDER™
WORK & WONDER™
The collection enables a balance between work & wonder™ in the wilderness.
The 3 pillars of durable fabrication, thermal comfort, and unrestricted movement aim to blend the grind and adventure in the great outdoors.
The mission is to elevate the uber-natural capabilities of wool fibers with minimal blend of synthetic fibers, for added durability and functionality. This uber-mentality allows us to create a collection of holistic layering options that maintain a natural level of comfort in all relentless winter weather conditions.
The journey to design interchangeable layering options, which remain comfortable and functional no matter the weather, starts with a mind set inspired by perpetual human connection to nature and all its Wonders.
CLO3D Render
The Benefits of using 3D render is a growing attribute in Technical Apparel industry.
My aim here was to become familiar and learn the essentials of a pattern stitch-up in Clo3D. In design process, the initial render can help improve pattern fitting, design features, and fabrication suitability.
Solving for Mobility
A Study of Movement and Articulation Zones

Elbow and knees articulation
Optitex Pattern Development
In order to develop the sleeve articulation, several design lines were explored and this final version gave the best range of motion. The sleeve fit can be further improved, by reducing the curve exaggeration of design lines.
