Territory is continuous across intertropical latitudes. The Amazon, the Indonesian rainforests, and the Tropical Andes share deep affinities, shaped by the same elemental forces. Those forces become the foundation of a design language rooted in local materials and craft. Intertropical brings this language into inhabited space. Commissioned by Massimo Dutti, Milan Design Week 2026.
