CLICQUOT ET PICASSO COHERE
REIMS TO MOUGIN, CLICQUOT TO PICASSO
REIMS | KZ_K VENTURED TO THE CAVES OF CHAMPAGNE, TO LEARN OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL AND TECHNICAL CAPACITIES THAT GO INTO SHAPING THE BRILLIANCE OF THE WORLD’S MOST COMMERCIALLY RENOWNED BUBBLY. WHAT DID WIDOW CLICQUOT DO TO USE HER BUSINESS SAVVY, HER UNDERGROUND CHALK CAVES, AND HER VINEYARDS TO REVOLUTIONIZE THE LOVELY SPARKLING WONDER OF CHAMPAGNE?
MOUGIN | DUE TO THE SPLENDID LIGHT, THE SWEEPING AND COOLING MEDITERRANEAN BREEZE, THE MOUNTAINOUS VIEWS, PICASSO MOVED TO THE FOOTHILLS OF THE ALPES, JUST ABOVE CANNES, FOR THE LAST 11 YEARS OF A HYPER-PRODUCTIVE LIFE. WHAT DID HE SEE IN THIS COMPACT, RAZOR SHARP DESIGNED, FORTIFIED TOWN? HOW DID THE OPEN, CASUAL STUDIO SPACES OF HIS VILLE NOTRE DAME DE VIE – FILLED WITH HIS AND OTHERS’ ECLECTIC PIECES – SHAPE HIS LAST YEARS OF PAINTING, ETCHING, SCULPTING AND DRAWING?
COTE D’AZURE | THROUGHOUT THE EXPLORATION, KZ SPORTED KZ_K TO ENGAGE WITH THE ENVIRONMENT, COMMUNICATE WITH NEW AND OLD FRIENDS, AND DYNAMICALLY INTERACT WITH EACH NEW EXPERIENCE, IN A SEARCH FOR NEW DESIGN IDEAS.
THE CLICQUOT ET PICASSO COHERE COLLECTION EXPRESSES THE KZ_K VISION DERIVED FROM THIS CREATIVE HUNT.
the kz_k studio
THE KZ_K STUDIO CREATES MODERNIST DESIGNS: PRECISELY CUTTING CLEAN YET BOLD FORMS AND TAKING THE UNIQUE IDEALS OF THE MADE-TO-MEASURE PROCESS TO ENHANCE EACH GARMENT WITH CONVERTIBILITY AND REVERSIBILITY.
AS A TRANSFORMATIONAL FUNCTION IN THE COLLECTIONS, THE VARIABILITY IN THE DESIGNS PERMIT PERSONALIZATION: ONE FORMS THE PIECES TO THE BODY AND SELF, FOR INDIVIDUAL VISION AND NEED.

MULTI-FUNCTIONAL
THE KZ_K STUDIO PROCESS IS TRANSFORMATIONAL, DRAWING FROM JESSE’S ARCHITECTURE DESIGN BACKGROUND: THE FOUNDATIONAL DESIGN FOCUS OF THE KZ_K STUDIO IS TO THINK THROUGH EACH DESIGN AS AN ARCHITECT WOULD, THAT IT CAN BE USED IN MULTIPLE WAYS, WITH VARIABILITY IN PROGRAM.
THE TRANSFORMATIONAL VALUE IN KZ_K DESIGNS NOT ONLY SERVES THE WEARER WITH FUNCTIONAL UTILITY AND INDIVIDUAL OPTIONS WITH EACH WEAR, BUT IT ALSO ALLOWS THE WEARER TO TAKE PART IN THE PERSONALIZED CREATION OF HER OWN LOOK. THIS TRANSCENDS THE STANDARD PURCHASE OF A PIECE OF CLOTHING, TO INSTEAD ALLOW A CREATIVE CONVERSATION WITH DESIGN, MORE FULLY REPRESENTING ONE’S OWN VISION. THE KZ_K STUDIO TRANSFORMATIONAL APPROACH ALLOWS FOR PERSONALIZATION.

stylized minimalism
“MINIMALISM IS A PURSUIT OF THE ESSENCE OF THINGS, NOT THE APPEARANCE.”
“MINIMALISM IS NOT ABOUT HAVING LESS. IT’S ABOUT MAKING ROOM FOR MORE OF WHAT MATTERS.”
“MINIMALISM IS NOT A STYLE...IT’S A FUNDAMENTAL REACTION AGAINST NOISE, VISUAL NOISE, DISORDER, VULGARITY.”
“Minimalism is not subtraction for the sake of subtraction. Minimalism is subtraction for the sake of focus”
