LIMITED EDITION SNAIL

Rare. Intentional. Worth the wait. Biannual by design.

A DESIGN ECOLOGY

The Snail, a slow-made, editioned object that acts as both artefact and gesture. Rooted in care, locality, and ecology, The Snail resists the pressures of speed, scale, and individual authorship that shapes much of contemporary design discourse. Instead, it embraces a slower, entangled process , one that foregrounds interdependence, material sensitivity, and mutual respect.

The Snail highlights the role of local makers, small-batch processes, and overlooked materials. Here, freedom is framed not simply as liberation from speed and uniformity, but as the capacity to build viable, local systems of making and exchange - a design ecology.
