Our focus is to to reject the norm. By not following prevailing trends in fashion it allows us to be more creative. Through collaboration we develop designs and products with purely original ideas. Our products are made for people who choose to think differently. They are not defined by stereotypes. They are a growing breed of sophisticated, unconventional, politically and socially aware individuals. They view life with humor, but choose not to accept only what is “acceptable.â€art, design, fashion, film, activism, veganism, environmentalism, hiking, exploring, nature, culture, primitive skills, philosophy, reading, traveling, learning, making things, painting, writing poetry, playing music and conversing with interesting individuals.
I'd like to meet:
Birdhead is not only defined by its innovative style, but also for the messages behind the style. The highly refined, well thought out designs occasionally revel devious yet humorous subliminal graphic messages.These juxtapositions and sometimes abstract creations are often coments on modern culture, political picking, sociological ideology and sometimes simply pure form and humor. Through art we are able to expose the contradiction in life and in culture. There is no other art form that is more personal then fashion. Clothing can be one of the most personal and effective ways of expressing your individuality as a human being.
