World Travel Dreaming

Today we’d like to introduce you to Sophia Stupperich, the graphic designer behind our fabulous textile print. As most of you Antithesis fans will be aware, travel is an important theme throughout our collections. So when we stumbled upon her dreamy atlas prints, we immediately fell for them.

Originally from Germany, Sophia studied Communication Design and worked for a handful of publishing companies and design agencies in Vancouver and Berlin before coming over to London to undertake an MA in Graphic Design at the London College of Communication. ‘Moving On’, her series of map cut-out prints was actually part of her final project. ‘Although the concept of travelling has been one of the first dreams of mankind, it has rarely been the focus of investigations itself. Inspired by the Herman Melville quote, “It is not down in any map, true places never are,” the project examines travelling being an ongoing path without a destination’, she explains.

Check out her website for more examples of her work.

Spring Is In The Air

Yes, we know it’s autumn and feels like winter right now, but as you may know the fashion world is always working one or two seasons ahead. This is why here at the Antithesis studio, we’re talking halter tops, beach gear and swimsuits (can you give us a better way to forget about the shortening daylight hours out there?). And because we love to talk about what we do, we’ll let you have a peak of the developments of our next collection. We won’t reveal it all but expect geometry, pleats and turquoise!

It’s Design Time!

Since you’re curious and we like to talk about what we do, here’s a sneak peak into the initial developments of our first collection which will be launched this coming Fall. The range is inspired by Wabi Sabi, a Japanese aesthetic view embracing the notion of authenticity by recognising that beauty is ‘imperfect, impermanent and incomplete’. Wabi stands for simplicity, humility and harmony while Sabi connotes a beauty or serenity that comes with age. We aim to make perennial garments that not only last, but also get better with time, just like your favourite pair of jeans or leather jacket.

In The Mood For Inspiration

Get a sneak peak of our first collection’s mood board! The geometry of constructivism and the colourfulness of Liberty prints were part of the inspiration of Antithesis AW 12/13.
