“My inspiration for this place was Aloha. When I went to Hawaii, it was really beautiful that bright orange sunset reflecting on the sea. The aloha flower and leaves blooming near the beach. I like it because everything relates. Aloha gives me a warm, relax, and nature impression. At the same it also gives an impression like a strong woman.”

Return

“The organic shapes and earth toned color palette draw inspiration from nature, specifically the forest. It is based on the concept of returning to the earth and soil after death. It works to showcase the peace and beauty in decomposition.”

- Dot, East Coast

Food Chain

“Every animal is an important part of the food chain, which is what allows life to exist. Food chain is inspired by that idea - the relationship between predator & prey, and how together, they have harmony.”
