About

Ian Akil is the contemporary design practice of Ian Akil Johnson dedicated to pushing the bounds of what is percieved as "high- fashion" through the intentional and artful use of post-production and post-consumer textile material.

With a deep love for fashion and nature, the designs presented are proposals for ways that highly functional and artistically distinct products can be created from materials that are often over-looked or discarded prematurely.

Through a synthesis of the natural with the synthetic, a harmony can be achieved that balances what humans can create alongside the natural environment they inhabit. Allowing both the possibility to prosper and grow in tandem for eternity.
