Checks & Rhythm
Order, with a playful note.
Square checks meet a rounded edge; clear colour meets a compact surface. Order and surprise add a playful supporting note to a collection centred on kanzashi.
The background, and our reading.
The connection between checks and the ordered lines of Kyoto streets or architecture is JOFAE’s visual interpretation. It is not a claim that these clips formally inherit a particular traditional pattern.
Expressions in the collection
Checker Square — Large
A broad square surface gives the repeating checks a strong graphic presence. It offers a bolder companion to the kanzashi collection.

Checker Square — Compact
A compact square brings repeated colour into a smaller area. It is an understated way to introduce pattern into an outfit.
Discover the design ↗Checker Round
Regular checks sit within a rounded outline. The meeting of straight lines and curves gives this clip a softer sense of play.
