Hermes Birkin stool
The product I created was a stool made from a recycled Hermes Birkin bag. As crazy as that sounds, I wanted to make a statement on the importance for people to understand where their materials are coming from, especially when it comes to fashion.
I’m a huge fashion and design lover, and have been for as long as I remember. The purpose of this project was not to dismiss the beauty of craftsmanship when it comes to leather goods in the fashion industry, but more to raise awareness on materiality and behind the scenes production that we all know can be wasteful and harmful to the environment and the beautiful creatures that live on planet earth.
The word FREEDOM stamped on the seat represents the breaking free of societal standards and expectations to find new ways to make the world a better place, not just for humans but also animals and the planet.
