Mid 2023, I brought back a book from Seoul about stealth and reconnaissance aircraft. Later that year, back in Paris, I met @arthur.lombardo . We quickly realized we shared the same vision and decided to build something together. At that point, we didn’t really know what it would become. The idea was clear, everything else had no strict limits. For the next year and a half, the project kept evolving. We explored structure, fit, and construction — trying to translate complex aircraft logic into something wearable. A lot changed along the way. The project was growing at the same time as we were. In early 2025, we moved into prototyping and materials. The best way to push it further was to go to Lyon, to @tomorrow.standard studio — working closely with @p.ovitch and @louiseporche , testing ideas directly through machinery and adjusting everything in real time. When it felt almost finished, we stayed open and didn’t try to define an ending. While traveling through Armenia, I met @narmalna . We decided to create a small final detail — I sketched it, and within days it became a 3D-printed titanium button, inspired by aircraft silhouettes from the book. Once we placed it on the jacket, it brought everything together. Looking back, we never tried to control the outcome. We just followed the process and where it could take us. It was open, honest, and constantly evolving — like a jam session. Some ideas worked, some didn’t, but it turned into something beyond what we expected.

It started with a book found in a secondhand store in Seoul — “The World’s Great Stealth and Reconnaissance Aircraft”. We kept returning to it over nearly two years, studying blueprints, lines, and the way aircraft are assembled. We looked at aircraft as a structure with a smooth exterior acting as a protective shell and an interior built for comfort and movement. This logic translated into garments through material and design choices: a Schoeller jacket shell, Cordura adjustment components, and a custom 3D-printed titanium button inspired by aircraft structure. More about the research will be available exclusively in the 10-year anniversary printed issue of @techuntermagazine , releasing on January 23, alongside a physical presentation of the project.

STEALTH AND RECONNAISSANCE An independent design research evolving over two years of experimentation. Investigating how aviation logic can be translated into technical apparel through structure, function, and transformation. The full story unfolds soon.

NOTIONS OF SELF: an attempt to see a reality that refuses labels. In a world where everything is categorized and simplified, some spaces resist definition. The project has no traceable starting point and continues to take shape, moving toward a finale it will never reach. The capsule is now available online.

Created for San San Gear, this project began in Korea a year ago and now comes to release. Inspired by Tibetan culture and its calligraphy, it features unique pocket graphics and edge details on the 3-layer jacket and pants set. Huge thanks to @yoffffff and @sansan_gear for the opportunity to contribute my vision and for the freedom throughout the process. Grateful for the team behind this: @enyuto @nightfox____ @keemjvhee @nueisao

We’re thrilled to present the new @kiliacci Graphic Design and Visual Identity system. The logotype was developed in two versions and paired with a custom mark, forming a visual foundation where experimentation meets timelessness. The process led us to rethink conventions and explore new ways of shaping identity. More soon.

UNWINDED: A Reflection on Urban Struggles is photographic exploration of the modern Korean office worker, capturing the dichotomy between polished appearances and the stark realities of post-work escapism. Featuring collar jacket and denim pants, this ensemble embodies how fashion can serve as both a shield and a mirror. The imagery reflects the poignant ritual of after-work drinks—entwined with the pervasive issue of alcoholism among those navigating corporate pressures. Together with the @rapidaccessmemory we developed this project to juxtapose professionalism with the truths of individuals seeking solace in fleeting moments of escape, inviting consideration of the complexities of navigating societal expectations and personal challenges.

NEEDLESS VARIABLE An experimental concept designed with the ability to change the direction and pattern of the protruding parts in the front of the jacket and with air intake in the back. It also allows you to change the width of some parts of the jacket and pants. Photo @kolya_ukol Model @j1mmy_abc
