Inside the Collection: Research, ideation, prototypes

INSPIRATION:

Inspired by Mary Cronin, the first woman to climb all 58 of Colorado's 14,000ft mountains in 1934, this collection channels grace, strength, resilience and grit. Functional and modular designs meet refined detail. Earthy tones and alpine accents reflect the landscapes which she conquered. The pieces embody both the endurance of the mountains, and the quiet power of a woman breaking boundaries.
