Knit Project / Gaenus

The Project: The Knit Project is a genderless, seasonless capsule collection by M2P and Gaenus Studio. The items were born out of a collaborative, multi-disciplinary process, based on research, design and a shared aesthetic.
Who we worked with: For this project, we collaborated closely with Eftychia Sarri, the creator of Gaenus Studio. Gaenus is an Athens-based fashion brand that explores new forms and textures, focusing on their signature style of versatility. Eftychia’s ethos and art practice match our own, thus enabling a fruitful, highly creative collaboration.
The items: The project is made up of four cotton-made pieces: a sweater, a pair of Bermuda shorts, a scarf and a beanie hat. All of them come in one size and one color combination (black and royal blue).
These four archetypical pieces are reinvented into unique items, by applying the jacquard technique to bring the M2P “Cyclades” pattern to life. The Cyclades pattern is based on embroideries and other shapes to be found in ceramics of the Aegean islands.
