Work Project:
an over-wear concept around the tradition of apron-wearing. Focused on new ways to consider what to wear when making things, organizing things, cleaning things, serving things, writing things. And, with the intention of it being transitional from interior space to exterior space. The silhouettes are made to balance interesting form with function, a departure from a traditional apron shape. Each piece is one size and is offered in rotating fabrics year-round with the addition of new shapes as well.
Available in the coming weeks at IKO IKO and also offering as wholesale pieces for interested retailers.
Email info@ikoikospace or call 323.719.1079 for more details.

The bookstore is based upon, and takes its name from, Llano Del Rio, which was organized under the Llano Del Rio Company and was a corporate-run socialist Utopian society initiated by Job Harriman, following his narrow defeat in a runoff election for the mayorship of Los Angeles. Harriman believed that the success of socialism depended not only on politics, but also on the realization of socialist principles. Harriman did not attempt to reform all of society, but rather, he believed that by creating a functioning socialist community within the larger society of capitalism, the larger society would gradually convert to socialism.
