Trendology: Eero Hintsanen x Hogan McLaughlin Capsule Collection

Last week, I received a surprised email from Eero Hintsanen (the co-founder of Chao and Eero) and I just have to show this new collection with you today!


For this season, Eero has collaborated with US designer Hogan McLaughlin on a capsule collection. The accessories are simply stunning and all of them have a strong couture vibe. Here is what Eero has to say about the collection:

"Our aesthetics with Hogan matched extremely well, and we worked independently sharing ideas and sketches online besides meeting once in Oslo. Idea was to make something with a “couture touch”, especially when 3D designs are overwhelming the traditional techniques in such a fast pace.

So I try to keep the traditional craft alive by using it into nice projects like this, projects with a very different approach when you look what other Master Goldsmiths do with their skills. Just like many previous big sculpture like objects I have done before, they combine the primal Finnish feeling and forms to a contemporary fashion."

To make this campaign look special, the designers have commissioned Matt Lambert to do a shoot at an abandoned military base/school in Berlin. In my opinion, the vibe of the location suits the collection a lot.

If you are interested in purchasing a piece from this collection, please feel free to contact Eero on Facebook!

Trendology: Eero’s Unique Jewelry

As you know, I am a huge fan of Chao & Eero Jewel and today, I am happy to announce Eero is having a new jewelry line!

This silver armour was originally made for a joint exhibition (Väki Vahva / All Mighty ) with costume designer Tanja Rovio in 2004. Afterwards, Eero continued to work on this series afterwards and this year, he has reunited with model Janika Neiminen (who did the campaign for this collection back in 2004) to create this promotion campaign. The photos are shot by Paula Ojansuu.
