DESIGN & COLOUR
Encryption is a playful exploration of transformation, following numbers abstracting into new shape and form as they evolve from language and code to the role of guardians of a digital world - as it expands and evolves beyond familiar constructs.
Coloured shapes are temporarily suspended in four blocks juxtaposed to challenge one's ideas and expectations, and to draw attention to the unfamiliar, and the state of change - that ultimately creates unexpected and surprising new combinations as the blocks converge.
Colour palette spans Acid Greens, Tea Greens, Chartreuse, Khaki, Honey Golds, Green Golds, Gold Browns, Icy Blues, Turquoise, Grey Blues and Teals, Hot Orange and Burnt Reds.
SIZE
47 x 47 cm.
FEATURES
Original designer print:
This silk scarf is an original design created in my London studio. I conceptualise and design every piece from scratch. The process starts with visual storyboards, words, sketches and hand-drawn ideas and colour swatches. The early concept design evolves slowly through multiple stages of refinement, weaving narratives into visual form through illustrative techniques, layering and final decision-making on colour harmonies, contrast and balance. Printed colour tests onto silk twill samples support the decision-making, and forms a framework for the careful preparation of artwork for print and strike-offs.
This scarf is designed as part of the highly collectable Aquarius Collection of original design edition silk scarves.
The sheer luxury of pure silk twill:
Crafted from 16oz silk twill, light, breathable, yet substantial and long-lasting. Soft, smooth, naturally lustrous and a temperature-regulating fibre that keeps you warm in cooler months and comfortably cool in summer. Gentle on the skin, breathable, and strong for its weight, perfect for everyday wear.
Hand-finished elegance:
Traditional hand-rolled edges create a refined, timelessly classic finish and ensure the scarf wears beautifully over time.
Versatile styling:
Wear around the neck, loosely draped, wrapped around your wrist, or tied onto a bag to bring colour and sophistication to any outfit, day or night.

Each scarf arrives in a beautiful gold-foil branded luxury gift box made by a family-founded business in the UK. Each box is fully recyclable, eco-friendly and plastic free, reflecting our commitment to sustainable design.
