A.P.C. works in collaboration with Jessica Ogden on the new Round 21 pack full of quilts and cushions. The blend of goods includes plush looks that are designed in geometric visuals and a vibrant color palette. the inspiration behind the range nods to textile artist Anni Albers as well as Josef Albers, an artist from Germany.
The Round 21 series centers on the concept of 'beauty in utility.' It explores the abstract and experimental designs of both artists. The two understood how shapes and emblems from Incan and Pre-Columbian art came to be close. In addition to this influence, every quilt is named carefully to reference specific works from the two artists to honor and celebrate them.
