"We are not now that strength which in old days moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are; One equal temper of heroic hearts, Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.”
MAINTAINING THE STATUS QUO IS NEGLIGENCE, AND DELIVERING ANYTHING LESS THAN THE SUBLIME IS POINTLESS. TRANSCENDENT DESIGN HAS LIMITLESS VALUE, AND THAT TRANSCENDENCE CAN HAVE A CASCADING, POSITIVE EFFECT. CALL ME AN OPTIMIST.
Sublime design, innovation, and materials exploration are core components of the methodology. The model combines advanced industrial processes with breathtaking artisanship, integrating old world sensibilities to achieve new standards. The focus is obsessively on detail, while keeping an eye on the power and beauty of design on a grand scale. Feedback is inspirational, and the goal is to inspire in return. Only together can we move forward, augmenting our knowledge base to continue breaking boundaries.
The FRACTAL concept employs a 3 dimensional structural language from which exquisite garments materialize - in essence, crystalline formations for the human body.
This third evolution of the Air shell is the inaugural component of a minimalist outerwear series that will focus on functional, highly articulated technical gear. The AIR jacket utilizes an ultra lightweight hydrophilic membrane, which makes it extremely waterproof (>20,000mm) and air permeable (>10,000 g/m2). By utilizing this membrane system we are able to deliver a garment that has elevated elasticity and comfort, while also exhibiting significant abrasion resistance — all at an extremely low weight of 4 oz. Shown in arctic white, also available in graphite grey.

Regarding furniture: where you place th item will have a significant bearing on its survivability. Light and heat will eventually damage most things, avoid placing items in direct sunlight. Prolonged exposure will result in fading, drying out and cracking. Sunlight will eventually cause UV damage to resins incorporated in the composition of carbon fiber. Balance is key, be sensible.
Treating possessions with care will make an impact on its lifespan. Always use coasters and mats for glasses and dishes. Unlike mass-produced furniture, bespoke furniture is often protected with more sympathetic finishes such as oils or waxes.
Never use general cleaning products such as kitchen or bathroom cleaner on valued furniture, unless specifically recommended by the creator. They contain harsh chemicals and abrasives and will corrode the finish and probably damage it more deeply as well.
Regarding performance textile products such as our Fractal Air jacket: we recommend gentle dry cleaning. If you prefer to wash your garment directly, ensure that all zips, flaps and tabs are closed. Machine wash your garment with warm water at 40°C on gentle cycle, using a liquid detergent. Tumble dry on lowest heat setting. Alternatively, line dry.
Regarding furniture: where you place th item will have a significant bearing on its survivability. Light and heat will eventually damage most things, avoid placing items in direct sunlight. Prolonged exposure will result in fading, drying out and cracking. Sunlight will bleach the fibers of wood, as well as separating the finish from the timber. Sunlight will eventually cause UV damage to resins incorporated in the composition of carbon fiber. Heat can cause real problems for solid wood furniture, keep it away from radiators, vents and open fires. Excessive heat can cause furniture to expand, rack and even split, depending on the materials and methods of construction. Sudden changes in room temperature can have a similar effect. Balance is key, be sensible.
Treating possessions with care will make an impact on its lifespan. Always use coasters and mats for glasses and dishes. For tables use a tablecloth. Hot items placed directly on solid wood or other surfaces is a bad idea. Unlike mass-produced furniture, bespoke furniture is often protected with more sympathetic finishes such as oils or waxes.
Never use general cleaning products such as kitchen or bathroom cleaner on valued furniture, unless specifically recommended by the creator. They contain harsh chemicals and abrasives and will corrode the finish and probably damage it more deeply as well. We strongly urge you to avoid these approaches. Anything which introduces chemicals and water solutions risks leaving permanent damage on your furniture. A slightly damp cloth and mild pressure is the only safe way to remove spills or residue. If this doesn’t work contact a professional.
Regarding performance textile products such as our Fractal Air jacket: we recommend gentle dry cleaning. If for whatever reason you prefer to wash your garment directly, ensure that all zips, flaps and tabs are closed. Also check that there is nothing in the pockets. Machine wash your garment with warm water at 40°C on gentle cycle, using a liquid detergent. Do not use powder detergent, bleach, fabric softener, conditioners or stain removers as they can affect the garment's performance. Rinse well, twice. Tumble dry on lowest heat setting. Alternatively, line dry.
