This collection of colors reaches into the cosmos and returns with a universe of inspiration. The Shapeshifter aesthetic is all about the mystical — from deep sea to glowing sky — and explores the space between technology and spirituality. See the collection.
WANDERER
For Explorers Who Will Never Be Fenced In
This palette features the subtle, earthy tones of the high plains. Clays, caramels and browns evoke canyon walls, worn leather, woven wool textiles and other New West imagery. With a nod to Scandinavian minimalist style, the Wanderer emits a modern desert vibe — calming, sun-washed and warm. See the collection.
AFICIONADO
For Conoisseurs Craving Timeless Elegance
Like a bookcase of leather-bound literary volumes, this pedigreed palette feels nostalgic, traditional and yet wholly new. Copper and gold anchor merlot and gray. The tailored tones are tasteful, elegant and classic. The design style says “upscale” — perhaps a little ostentatious but oh so charming. See the collection.
ENTHUSIAST
For Free Spirits Who Like to Bend the Rules
Designers know that maximalism is on the rise, providing endless possibilities for self-expression. For those who go against the grain, the Enthusiast palette is about attitude, resisting the status quo — yet the combination yields harmonious results. The proof is in the palette, which features bold pops of vivid blue, green and red. See the collection.
NATURALIST
For Lovers of Earthly Delights
The Naturalist never loses that sense of wonder, happy to be surrounded by a world in full bloom. Think French woodland, where the color never fades. Focused on botanicals, the palette features lush, sophisticated tones, ranging from mushroom to passionate pink. It’s slightly classic with daring details. See the collection.
RACONTEUR
For Storytellers Who Live for the Rare Experience
As long as humans have existed, they have relished a good story — whether told eons ago by firelight or in modern day by live webcast. The Raconteur explores human origins — from Africa to the New World — and translates them into a palette that celebrates cultural richness. See the collection.
