refreshing
vans x eames
a study of color & colloboration of two iconic brands.
Founded in 1966 by Paul Van Doren, Vans has been a staple footwear brand within the skateboarding & streetwear community.
Initially worn by the character Spicoli in the film “Fast Times at Ridgemont High,” the checkerboard slip ons helped bring Vans to large scale notoriety.
Charles & Ray Eames are best known for their groundbreaking exploration of architecture, furniture design, industrial design & photographic arts.
They transformed the way Americans furnished their homes offering affordable highly sculptural objects to many middle-class Americans.
Mood:
a collage of eames products + images for color inspiration.
