DROP 003
Â
Drop 003 is for the moments that usually go unnoticed. This collection is an ode to slower rhythms, quiet presence and clear thinking. A reminder to pause and disconnect, observe and feel with intention.
Carefully curated by Emilie Lassen, a Somatic Stress Release practitioner and holistic nutritionist, with a background in the fashion industry both as a designer and founder of an independent retail store in Istanbul. Emilie’s inspiration is drawn from the beauty and steady repetition found in nature—a profound reminder of the importance of self-connection, self-care, nourishment, intuitive movement, and the comforting repetition that sustains it all.
Â
A small series of objects conceived as companions to these moments. Totems of presence that encourage us to slow down: a long sip of tea, a page read slowly, a moment spent simply noticing the act of inhaling and exhaling.
Drop 003 will be introduced through a series of photographic works, starting with a project by Stefania Zanetti.

Designers
By Way Of — Oya Tekbulut, Istanbul
By Way Of is a jewellery studio founded by designer Oya Tekbulut in Istanbul. Rooted in process-driven design, the work explores tensions between intuition and engineering, softness and structure. Each piece is handcrafted in fine metals with master jewellers in the Grand Bazaar, where careful hand finishing leaves subtle traces in the surface.
Â
Maya Carves — BarcelonaÂ
Maya Carves creates small-batch ceramics shaped entirely by hand. Drawing inspiration from mountain landscapes and rocky terrain, each stoneware piece is pinched, carved, or built through traditional techniques such as coil building, slab building, and kurinuki. Textured surfaces and gentle irregularities remain visible in the clay, giving every piece a tactile presence and a quiet individuality.
Â
Mentsen — Yasuyuki Sakurai & Risa Sano, London
Mentsen is a London-based design practice founded by Japanese designers Yasuyuki Sakurai and Risa Sano. Working between craft and industrial design, the studio moves across furniture, objects, and spatial work, guided by a search for efficiency, clarity, and elegance. Alongside collaborations with cultural and commercial clients, the duo produce bespoke pieces in their London workshop, where line, proportion, and surface define the character of each object.

Charlie Kaae — Copenhagen / Bornholm
Charlie Kaae is a Danish glass designer based between Copenhagen and Bornholm. She began her studies at Riksglasskolan in Sweden and is currently studying glass at the Royal Danish Academy in Copenhagen. Working primarily with hand-blown glass, she explores how light moves through simple forms, where subtle variations from the making process give each piece its own quiet presence.
