Whistles x Stuttenheim raincoat collaboration | Design Hunter

I can often be found jotting down scribblings in their kraft notebooks and over the years I've accumulated a large collection of their acrylic storage boxes which I use to keep my jewellery, make-up, beauty products and various other things in order. So when I was offered a first look at their new shelving collection I jumped at the chance to style a few of the pieces for today's post.

Kelly Hoppen has collaborated with Australian brand Apaiser on a new luxury bathroom collection with soft lines and a sculptural, Zen-like feel.

Inspired by the ceremony and ritual of eastern bathing traditions, the collection includes: Harmony, a layered design inspired by the petals of a lotus flower; Origami, a fluted design that takes its name from the intricate Japanese art of paper folding; and Bande which is based on the Obi, a sash used in traditional Japanese dress.
