Our eyes perceives design through stylelines.
Here, we explore the classic, the traditional, and what breaks conformity whilst retaining a comfortable sense of uniformity.

As we converge into a seamless approach between ‘corporate’ and ‘lifestyle’, tailoring demands finetuning from a master drafter, and the creativity of a designer that lends new meaning to the phrase ‘Think outside the box’.
There are no fast and hard rules, but there still exists a fine line between the astute and the relaxed. Asethetic balance and understanding is imperative as we navigate the tricky waters between convention and wearable imagination.
