Awamaki Lab

I am increasingly interested in exploring the use of design as a tool for social change, and was searching for an opportunity to explore the roles I might play in such projects. When I read about Awamaki, a Peruvian-based company committed to preserving and reviving the native textile weaving tradition, it stood out to as a company with which I could explore my interests. I was delighted to hear about Awamaki Lab, Awamaki’s new program which hosts an up-and-coming fashion designer in Ollantaytambo, Peru for four months to create a collection with native textiles. Awamaki Lab was entering its inaugural season and their graphic design needs included various projects promoting the program and the first fashion collection, designed by Nieli Vallin.
