Walaland Concept
A wild collaboration and limited numbered edition, the WALALAND concept is the result of an encounter between Anne&Valentin and French artist Camille Walala, whose London studio is globally renowned for its direct, colorful graphic language, and giant murals.Bold, sharply carved, and ultra-present with their block-like aspect, the WALALA frames highlight their graphic bas-reliefs. Each shape features different temples. The shapes are bold, very Eighties, with a nod to 60s fashion. The geometric compositions echo contemporary urban architecture, city playgrounds, and old-school gaming in its vintage arcade form.
Asymmetrical temples. Layered strata. Machining that reveals the lower layers. Lamination reminiscent of formica veneers. Edges treated with matte cuts, contrasting with the glossy face. Extremely defined patterns and complementary colors create undeniable vibrational effects. Finally, colors that pop as much as the shapes. Signaling white. Vinyl black. Arcade blue. Synthetic green or bathhouse green. Electro lilac. Smiley yellow. Tagada red. Velvet red. Warning red. 1999 violet. Think color madness. Take it one step further.
Offbeat, expressive, singular, and far beyond the trend, the WALALA frames cultivate their own taste, their personal vision. They make you fiercely want to grab a Rubik's Cube and spend a sleepless night unraveling its mysteries for good, all the while dancing on the floor of a nightclub built on the outskirts of the city, atop a bustling beltway . Multi-task. Multi-pass.
