“Tracing down the earliest memory of what clothing can be — it doesn't just serve one function. Through circular design, I use materials from post-consumer garment waste and allow the end-user to redesign the discarded garment as a household item again.” – Darius Jireh Juson

redress Design Award Collection

Darius’ Redress Design Award collection, ‘Bedroom Fairytale: Act 1’, is a fusion between household items and garments, evoking nostalgia and comfort. Bedsheets from Darius’ home and secondhand shops supply the textiles for the designs, while natural dyeing techniques reduce the environmental impact. The collection is made with versatility in mind, encouraging users to maximise their relationships with the garments through restyling in different ways.
