§ ABOUT
An independent studio.
STATEMENT
ARCHIVE™ was founded to make the small number of garments and objects we wanted to own but could not find. We study construction, memory and material. We release less than we could, in editions we would keep.
Garments. Objects. Rituals. A record kept openly.
PRINCIPLES
Four things we work by.
01
Restraint
A short list is a form of quality control. We release only what we would keep.
02
Materials first
Every piece begins in the material library — never in the trend cycle.
03
Slow
We work in editions, not seasons. Made to last, not to be replaced.
04
Transparent
Mills, tanneries and hands are named. Prices reflect what things actually cost to make.
