MILAN DESIGN WEEK 2022: LOEWE WEAVE, RESTORE, RENEW

Loewe explored leather weaving, traditional straw-weaving known as Coroza, and Korean paper-weaving known as Jiseug, with their WEAVE, RESTORE, RENEW exhibition at Milan Design Week 2022. The project revolved around the concept of resuscitating objects and materials that may otherwise be forgotten or discarded, by transforming them into baskets, handbags and vases.

Creative Director Jonathan Anderson said; ‘Across this whole project, we celebrate the regenerative power of handwork. I am proud we have created a series of items that rewire the relation with time, wear and tear, delivering a message of evolution and transformation that I find progressive and uplifting.’
