BLUNT x Graham Tipene: Behind the design 💚

Every line across the canopy is intentional. 
 
🌿 The design follows a poutama pattern, tracing a journey from darkness at the base, the circle representing the harder chapters in the language’s history. 
 
🌿 Up towards the centre represents where Te Reo Māori is spoken, taught and shared openly. 
 
🌿 Running through the design are whakarare, lines that speak to disruption, and ngutu kākā, the beak of a bird, symbolising the passing on of verbal knowledge. 

🌿 A kiri kiore pattern nods to a story from the north, water trickling over the backs of swimming rats, while three unaunahi, representing fish scales, speak to manaakitanga: the practice of gathering kai and looking after each other.  
 
“The designs are about looking after each other. Now we have direct access to knowledge.” — Graham Tipene

"There is no single point of view of an artwork on an umbrella. It became more a case of telling a little story via a montage of images." – Adam Lester⁠
⁠
Inspired by the natural beauty of Australian coastal life, this limited-edition Metro was hand-painted in acrylic and ink, then cut and reconfigured across six panels — each angle revealing a different fragment of sunrise pinks, shells and shoreline.⁠

The Road to Neo. Part 5.⁠
⁠
Metro vs Neo — they're not the same umbrella. They're not supposed to be.⁠
⁠
Metro carried for the days you know it's going to rain. Neo to be carried with you everywhere you go, no matter the weather.⁠
⁠
Two umbrellas. Different problems solved 👏🏻⁠

The Road to Neo. Part 3.

We were so close in 2018, but the Neo wasn't quite there yet. So we turned to the BLUNT community - sending out prototypes for our customers to try, test, and tell us exactly what they thought.

The Road to Neo. Part 2.

In 2018, we had a prototype that almost made it - but almost wasn't good enough. So we went back to the drawing board.
