THE IDEA
A PLACE YOU CAN CARRY WITH YOU
Places can hold identity, memory and belonging. Wear Your Place translates those connections into hand-painted leather—turning a map, venue, street or meaningful location into a one-of-a-kind wearable artwork.
This is more than customised clothing. It is a personal place, recognised through colour, line and form, and carried with you.
See how RECOGNITION transforms meaningful locations into personalised map artwork.

HOW IT WORKS
FROM YOUR PLACE TO WEARABLE ART
1. SHARE YOUR PLACE AND PIECE
Tell me the location that matters and the leather item you would like transformed.
2. SHAPE YOUR
STORY
We identify the roads, buildings, venues or details connected to your experience.
3. DEVELOP THE DESIGN
I create one or more directions shaped around the item, your preferred colours and its construction.
4. PAINT THE ARTWORK
The design is hand-painted onto the leather, creating a unique piece made to be worn.
YOUR HOME
The place you return to, shaped by the streets and details that make it yours.
