The Studio
Field Notes.
The Studio is where Earth becomes physical. We upcycle clothing, mentor youth designers, and build a circular marketplace where garments can be repaired, rehomed, and reworked instead of discarded.
This is slow fashion by design. Small runs, real craft, traceable materials, and a loop that keeps value in the local system.
“Circular is not a category. It is a promise to keep materials moving.”
Rescue materials
We source from thrift, deadstock, donations, and offcuts. We work with what the world already has.
Make it wearable
The point is not art-for-art’s-sake. The point is functional pieces people want to wear repeatedly.
Keep it in the loop
Repairability, resale, and rework are part of the design brief. Circular is a system, not a slogan.
Upcycling, not costume
We start with what already exists. Worn denim, damaged seams, discarded stock. We deconstruct it, then rebuild it into something with life left in it.
Youth designer pathways
We support young designers with tools, guidance, and a platform. Real garments, real drops, real customers. Creative work should lead somewhere.
The circular marketplace
A marketplace where pieces can be resold, repaired, reworked, or swapped. A loop that keeps clothing moving and landfill shrinking.
