The newly launched Helinox x Meguru Yamaguchi collection represents a collaboration between outdoor gear brand Helinox and Brooklyn-based Japanese artist Meguru Yamaguchi.
Known for his distinctive ‘Cut & Paste’ technique, Meguru Yamaguchi’s artistic approach is reflected in this collection through the integration of his ‘Brush Stroke’ style into the design of Helinox’s furniture. The capsule features high-performance aluminum alloy frames and durable fabrics. It includes a chair and table, alongside lifestyle items such as a tote bag, T-shirt, and cap, all adorned with Yamaguchi’s signature patterns.
The Helinox x Meguru Yamaguchi collection offers a unique blend of contemporary art and practical furniture, appealing to consumers interested in combining artistic expression with high-quality outdoor products. The capsule is also limited edition, adding a layer of exclusivity to the designs.
