Tekla: The Colors of Le Corbusier

February 21, 2023

Tekla, in collaboration with Les Couleurs Suisse AG, the exclusive licensor of the original Le Corbusier colours, released their second collection of complimentary and contrasting blankets. The limited-edition collection captured by Ben Beagent is presented at Le Lac, the holiday home designed for the parents of Swiss-French architect, Le Corbuisier, in Switzerland. Mirrored in the blanket design, the home and Le Corbuisier’s architectural polychromy colors are featured in seven blankets with either checked or striped typologies.

“There’s a common belief that Le Corbusier was a minimalist, but when researching, we found archive photos that revealed his personal living spaces were filled with different textures, colours, and objects,” said Charlie Hedin, Founder and Creative Director at Tekla.

Woven by artisanal producers in Scotland, the checked blankets feature a tonal colourway with a textured blend of cashmere and lambswool finished with whipstitching at the outer edge. As for the striped blankets, 100% lambswool is finished with a natural, fringed edge in more vibrant colors.

UGG’s Latest Campaign Has Claws, Literally

October 29, 2026

Born out of collaboration between UGG and Brooklyn-based designer Gabe Gordon, the short film FROSTBITE was presented for their Fall/Winter 2026 campaign. The film explores the balance between discipline and freedom, where teenage restlessness and desire erode. It follows a group of ice skaters as they abandon the familiar confines of the rink for a hot August night in Upstate New York. The film shifts from a melancholic dreamscape to an eerie nightmare as the dancers grow claws and fur, becoming monsters of the night.

FROSTBITE premiered on October 28 at Cinema Village in New York. The evening also featured exclusive embroidered UGG® Trey Rib Knit Crew Socks and enamel pins, followed by a showing of the 2005 horror film House of Wax, an appropriately strange double feature. With creative direction by Gordon, styling by America Korban, and music by Vickie Cherie, the project feels closer to an atmospheric coming-of-age film than a conventional fashion campaign. FROSTBITE completely subverted expectations. A total nostalgia trip, violently interrupted by a lycanthropic twist.
