Whilst browsing the internet for some chic, cool knitwear for the winter (yes I like to plan ahead), I came across Eyes of the world designs collaboration with knitwear designer Brooke Roberts. Eye of the world designs is run by Liam Motyer and Hope Von Joel. They create accessories with the primary material being wood. All of the pieces are made in London and are crafted and finished by hand. Each accessory is different to the next as different types of wood are used and finished off with a interior design/furniture feel.
The current collection is a collaboration with Brooke Roberts. This includes belts buckles, hats, jigsaw belts and perspex pieces. Together, both the knitwear and the wooden accessory's, complement each other well. This is in terms of the geometric patterns on the knitwear with the geometric shapes on the accessorys. The wood just frames the shapes in the knitwear so well. I never really saw wood as being a great material to accessorize with but Eye of the world designs have done just that, and so well too.
