HANUEL — a collection of wearable and pendant accessories inspired by the traditional aesthetics of East Asia and the image of the boundary between light clouds and deep shades of the sky.
The collection is based on the contrast between soft, voluminous elements with a looped texture and flat silk details featuring crisp geometric color blocks.
Collection
Each accessory in the collection embodies its own unique depiction of the sky.
For the silk elements rendered in abstract geometric forms, a restrained color palette was chosen—one that conveys the subtle shifts between various sky tones while referencing the traditional aesthetics of East Asia. The clouds, in turn, are realized through soft, volumetric textile elements that vary in shape and size.
Hair Clip
The design of the hair clip is inspired by the image of a winter sky, characterized by short daylight hours, cool tones, and subdued lighting.The color palette features deep blues, dark ceruleans, and restrained warm tones, conveying the atmosphere of winter twilight.
A large, voluminous textile element symbolizes a dense winter cloud with soft, blurred contours. Its airy texture contrasts with the flat geometric details made of silk, emphasizing a sense of depth and the serenity of a winter sky.
Phone Lanyard
The design of the pendant is inspired by the image of an autumn sunset, as the sky gradually takes on rich shades of red, orange, and gold.The color palette combines the warm tones of the setting sun with muted natural hues, evoking the atmosphere of an autumn evening.
A soft, voluminous element, rendered in light and reddish hues, resembles a fluffy cloud bathed in the last rays of the sun. The contrast between the warm colors and the varied material textures evokes a sense of coziness and tranquility.
Bag Charms
Two bag charms embody the contrasting imagery of spring and summer skies.
The Spring version employs a more restrained and deep color palette, reflecting the cool atmosphere of early spring and the approach of evening twilight. The combination of dark greens, reddish tones, and muted blues conveys the transition from winter austerity to springtime renewal. The Summer version, conversely, is distinguished by a bright and saturated palette. Blues, deep blues, greens, and yellows evoke the clear summer sky, sunlight, and a feeling of warmth.
Small, voluminous textile elements symbolize light clouds, complementing both compositions and emphasizing the differences between the seasonal looks.
