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.
