    Luna del Pinal | Fashion Designers

    The 5th visit for ‘A Collection Of Spaces’ is with Gabriela Luna & Corina del Pinal. - Fashion Designers. Their brand Luna del Pinal is a destination-led, artisanal womenswear and lifestyle brand, designed and produced in Guatemala. I reached out to Gabriela & Corina from fashion & lifestyle brand Luna del Punal and they invited me to their studio space in Bethnal Green. Houses in what appeared to be the old council headquarters. They had worked with Luke & Nik from episode 1 on a video & photo series a few summers ago & I’d heard great things 🙏🏻 The duo whose bright corner studio was filled with fabrics, samples and objects for their research trips. A space surrounded by artists & painters whose studio spaces were divided up by curtains and bed sheets, something that you often see in these temporary studio before a developer takes the land back. Contrasting to an outsiders perception of glamour you often associate with the fashion world. We spoke about their early days of building the brand in London and the journey they took to discover the artisans and crafts people they now work collaboratively with in Guatemala. A collaboration which developed from a creative soul searching trip to learn about textiles and weaving. I learnt about the process of creating, showcasing & selling a fashion collection, what that really means and how long it takes to go from an idea in a sketchbook to an item which you can wear every day. Gabriela & Corina are full of excitement for the processes and fabrics they have discovered from their research trips. It was an enjoyable hour spent in the studio and I hope that comes across in the conversation. https://www.lunadelpinal.com/shop https://www.instagram.com/lunadelpinal/ - - - If you would like to contribute to this series then please feel free to get in touch.

    Michael Marriott | Designer

    The 4th visit for A Collection Of Spaces is with Designer - Michael Marriott. I came across Michaels work from the Modernist Estates Instagram last year. He had a popup market stall inside the new Paul Smith shop at Borough Market and it was great to see the smaller object from his 'Wood Metal Plastic' project in real life. As with a couple of these conversions we connected about a shared interest in local Skateparks, a place that Michael visits with his son and slowly witnessing the communities they foster. We spent the morning at his studio / workshop in Dalston, talking about setting up the space 10 years ago, how it's evolved for him and the projects that have been made there. We spoke about the difference between a workshop & a studio as well as between designers, makers and crafts people. This first part of the conversion wasn't recorded but led us down an interesting path about the layers of visual lenses in the way we see our surrounding be that as a designer, photographer or skateboarder. https://www.michaelmarriott.com https://woodmetalplastic.com https://www.instagram.com/instamarriott2.0 - - - If you would like to contribute to this series then please feel free to get in touch.

    Matt Watts | Joiner

    Matt grew up in the same town as me and we spent a lot of our summer evenings at the local skatepark & winters under the cover of a Morrisons carpark skating & BMXing. He was from the generation above me, so I would look up to him & his group of friends who were in bands and had cars to carry ramps around town. Jumping forward nearly 20 years and last summer I heard Matt had started a YouTube channel as a way to connect with other makers and get out of a solo working funk we all can find ourselves in. He's built house extensions, plastered bathrooms & fitted out retail shops. Recently he has focused his craft on cabinetry & joinery for residential clients. We spent the afternoon chatting about his journey and the workshop space he has in the Bedfordshire county side. https://www.instagram.com/wattsjoinerybarn/ https://www.youtube.com/@Wattsjoinerybarn - - - If you would like to contribute to this series then please feel free to get in touch.

    Tami Aftab | Photographer

    I really enjoyed listening back to this one, as Tami has been in the space for the past 2 years and I remember visiting when they first moved and you could feel the excitement of a group of young photographers & designers all working alongside each other. I spent a short hour with Tami at her shared studio space aka ‘Plant Face Studios‘ in Peckham. She graduated from LCC in 2020 & has quickly made her mark on the photography world in the past four years. Her work can be seen in magazines, online and recently in a collaborative book with her dad exploring memory and her Pakistani heritage. "Tami Aftab is an English-Pakistani photographer based in London. Her work touches on subjects of intimacy, family, identity, and play." https://www.instagram.com/tamiaftabhttps://www.tamiaftab.com - - - References: https://hot-potato.news/ https://www.instagram.com/agnesvita https://gupmagazine.com/books/und-im-sommer-tu-ich-malen/ https://mackbooks.co.uk/products/ttp-br-hayahisa-tomiyasu-first-edition-fourth-printing ⁠https://tamiaftab.com/The-Rice-is-on-the-Hob-Book-Tami-Aftab⁠ https://www.instagram.com/tomboothwoodger/ https://wepresent.wetransfer.com/stories/tami-aftab-the-rice-is-on-the-hob Its Nice That - Tami Aftab https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NU_LdQVynKM - - - If you would like to contribute to this series then please feel free to get in touch.
