NOTHING IS TRULY DISPOSABLE. ONLY UNDISCOVERED.
I find beauty and possibility in materials that might otherwise be overlooked — then turn them into useful things you'll actually want to keep around.
MINA = Make It New Again
The MINA Collection takes materials that would be discarded and transforms them into something colorful for your everyday.
