M + P is a collection of stories told thru visual narratives and hand made studies. Created by Christine Marcelino, a San Francisco based industrial designer, M + P started as a penchant for new materials and sustainable processes and has grown into a passion that had to be shared. We aim to cultivate and inspire thought through the art of storytelling and artisanship.
_ MATERIAL: Vegetable Dyed leather. This particular process tans the leather with plant based dyes. It has no coating and so your history and adventures are embedded in the material of the product.
_ PROCESS: Designing and crafted in San Francisco. Leather is an unforgiving material that warrants craft. Its been a journey where every cut, every curve, and each stitch requires a lot of deliberation and patience. What started as material studies, has now become journey.
A little shout out to Alite Designs for a fab studio and Rona Newth for glamizon shots.
