The Story, we too often unknowingly dress ourselves expressing who we are through items made in sweatshops, the cheaper production method which is increasingly consuming the clothing industry. Employees of such companies are forced to work in poor conditions for long hours only to achieve a low insubstantial wage. Not only are we making profit for such companies that condone this injustice, but we are also further fueling the unfair trade and underprivileged working conditions that they create.
The Prospect, of ORIGIN provides an alternative option for consumers to get the satisfaction of supporting an Australian company. A company which takes equal amount of care in all aspects of the brand, furthermore encouraging the awareness of quality made products within the fair-trade industry.
The Design, inspiration was drawn from Australian landscapes, which feature uniquely diverse forms and deep earthy tones. Specialty suede finish interior paint beautifully embodies the soft grain texture of clay walls. The Finish in clay red by Raph Lauren became a core element of the ideal aesthetic. This carefully crafted setting has been paired with iconic furniture pieces, such as the Fusion chair which exemplifies values of voluptuousness, comfort and luxury.
