L'Amour Après Coup

Designer Myrte Kilian created a textile collection called L'Amour Après Coup (Love at Second Sight), through which she explored her fascinations of her childhood for the second time.

Kilian's designs develop through the usage of an inspiration/process wall, where she mixes research materials and her own process. Because this is such a key element in her process, this had to become a key element in the collection book as well. When going through the publication in a conventional way, one gets guided through a chronological process of Kilian's work and a collage of inspiration images/illustrations. The publication can be taken apart and places above each another. This way you can recreate an impression of Kilian's process wall and use it as your own inspiration.
