Other Scenes Magazine: Instinctual Design

Nov 2025

Instinctual Design, an editorial feature for Other Scenes Magazine, explores the intersection of sculptural form and fashion. The series relies on a minimalist aesthetic to highlight structural tailoring and tactile, organic elements. Photographer Marco Lessi documents model Cecilia Wu against clean, reflective brushed-metal surfaces and neutral studio backdrops, utilizing soft, diffused lighting to emphasize garment textures. Fashion editor Camilla Pole curates a wardrobe of avant-garde silhouettes, incorporating layered mesh, satin, and deconstructed hardware. The visual narrative is punctuated by still-life studies of botanical arrangements, featuring set design by Romain Goudinoux that underscores the project's focus on material contrast. Hair by Hikaru and makeup by Anna Kato maintain a refined, understated finish throughout the collection.
