Fougère & Herbal

Aromatic, wild, untamed. Not the concerted order of an English garden, but the tangled depth of overgrown clearings–leaf and stem bruised underfoot.

How these feel in real life...

  • Bristling fracture of rosemary needles stripped from the branch
  • Plush press of sage rubbed between fingers, releasing its satin, earthy bite
  • Delicate, papery rustle of dried tea leaves shifting in a tin

Green Earth

Vivid, lush, expansive. The movement of wind through dense foliage; roots stretching through damp soil; a hum of life underfoot.

How these feel in real life...

  • Fibrous burst of an aloe leaf oozing with sap
  • Wide, waxy surface of a Monstera deliciosa leaf catching beads of water
  • Tangled weave of a thatched palm roof, coarse yet pliant
Lucali and Joya

Leaf & Stem

Verdant crunch and snap, pastoral provocations. Fresh-cut greenery, bracingly raw, alive with movement and energy.

How these feel in real life...

  • Crisp tear of a vine twisted from the trellis
  • Hollow pop of a sugar snap pea splitting open
  • Slick, viscous trace left behind by a broken stem

Wind & Waves

Water, air and the in-between. Fluidity with a quiet charge; an ozone-laced breath before the storm.

How these feel in real life...

  • Slick pull of seaweed sliding within wet fingers.
  • Thick tension of weighty air before the first crack of lightning
  • Ripple of fabric billowing on a salt-tinged breeze

Wood

Comforting, evocative, primal. The grounding weight of aged forests; slow polish of hands over time.

How these feel in real life...

  • Ridged grain of an worn wooden beam, sanded smooth in parts by years of touch
  • Deep, luminescent gloss of a violin’s profound, polished surface
  • Splintering give of a freshly split log–cooling, prickly–rising through the air

Dry Earth

Sun-baked, alluvial, expressive. The warmth of minerals underfoot; stillness of dust held in light; a quiet presence of time-worn landscapes.

How these feel in real life...

  • Cracked surface of weathered clay in dry heat
  • Cool weight of porous ceramic against your palm
  • Crumbling edge of sun-bleached stone, powdering at a touch
