The Transport Collection

Keep Moving

Inspired by the multicolored Volkswagen Beetles that filled the streets of 1970s Lagos - and the journeys they carried. This print celebrates movement, freedom, and the open road.

The Story

The Inspiration

Roads Full of Colour

In the Nigeria of the 1970s, the streets were alive with Volkswagen Beetles in every colour imaginable - taxi yellows, market greens, celebration reds. They weren't just cars. They were how life moved.

The Pattern

Wax Print, Reimagined

We drew from the repeating geometries of traditional African wax print fabric - patterns that have crossed oceans and generations. Bold shapes. Unexpected colour combinations. A rhythm that catches the eye.

The automobile motifs are layered into these traditional forms, creating something that feels both nostalgic and completely new.

Movement Connects Us

From Lagos to Vancouver, London to Seattle - we're all just trying to get somewhere. The Transport collection is for everyone who knows that the journey matters as much as the destination.

Whether you're catching the SkyTrain in the rain or walking through Pike Place, this print carries a piece of that 1970s Lagos energy with you.
