A Brush With Design is a collaboration between indie shaving brand Harry's and product design brand 'Good Thing' on a collection of carefully curated shaving brushes. The designs add a contemporary twist to the classic product. 13 hand-selected brushes make up the collection, which is to be displayed at this year's NYCxDESIGN.
This line reflects the aesthetics of both brands, including Good Thing's model of "attractive tools for everyday life" and Harry's value of "quality craftsmanship, simple design, modern convenience."
Some of the brushes exhibit practicality and functionality, while other designs remain more sculptural, allowing for viewers to perceive the age-old product as simultaneously classic, and contemporary.
A Brush With Design combines art with the simplicity of routine, attracting viewers who value quality, craftsmanship and simplicity in their everyday tools.
