The Cloud Commission
Bucking the trend
The Cloud Commission has looked at ways in which jewellery design functions as a relationship between couples or as part of a wider shared experience. The function of jewellery is to adorn the body, to improve it, jazz it up, to make one desirable. When jewellery is given as a gift, we suppose there is a shared experience, but the gift is still for the sole use of the recipient.
For this project The Cloud Commission wanted to create a vehicle for dialogue, a shared experience, to wear the accoutrements of an elite club of two. The emphasis shifted from how one can improve upon their natural state to how two people can combine to create a look.
Anyways, It’s not really all that. It’s just a couple of bits of jewellery made from our drawings. We like it. It reminds us of Argos.
