For the moments we shared..
If you’ve spent time with us this year, you’ll recognise how much of it was shaped by sitting and letting things unfold in their own time.
We sat alone, and we sat together — arriving at moments worth returning to. You asked for more places to sit, and we listened — adding more tables and chairs to build out the curated corners designed to be returned to.
Together, we shaped a more homely third space worth revisiting.
And of course, we joined in too, finding our own favourite chairs and corners, often sitting longer than planned, simply to let the noise pass before getting up again.
In those moments, the pace of the space revealed itself — slower, steadier, and shaped by use rather than intention alone.
From there, we learnt to sit, listen more attentively, and act on what feels right in practice, not just in theory.
That understanding didn’t come from big decisions or sudden changes, but from watching patterns form.
From noticing what you returned for, what felt familiar, and what didn’t need explaining. You’ll have seen it in what we shared — coffee, again and again.
Beans, cups, hands, cups and all the vessels..
The repetition was intentional, each post stayed with the same thing long enough for its story to deepen. Each cup carried a different moment; each return added another layer.
In café, the same rhythm played out. Many of you came in on your own pace..
Ordered the same drink, chose the same seat — each time you came back; that steadiness mattered.
It showed us that, for many it wasn’t for novelty, but for ease — for a place that didn’t ask you to perform or move on too quickly.
For us, the intention has always been to build something worth returning to, and to let it grow in the spaces between visits.
Each time you returned, you added something to our work, through your presence and the time you spent sitting with us.
Those small, ordinary moments — choosing a seat, ordering the same drink, staying a little longer than planned — helped shape the pace and feel of what we’re building.
They showed us what mattered, what felt steady, and what was worth carrying forward.
For us, that kind of influence can’t be designed or predicted; it only comes from people showing up, again and again.
As a brand and people, our idea has always been about creating things worth coming back to — clothes, books, objects, and the hospitable luxuries of food and drink.
Looking ahead, what you can expect is more of the same rhythm and flow, refined — maybe a few new faces along the way.. who knows.
What we are certain about is seeing you even more often..
So many of you have shaped this year in quiet, meaningful ways, and we can’t thank you enough for the time, care, and presence you’ve shared with us.
You’ve sat with us, shared with us, created alongside us, and taken the time to reflect too.
Those moments — repeated, unspoken, familiar — are what have shaped this year more than anything else. We’re truly grateful to you all.
It’s been a pleasure to share the space with you — to see familiar faces return, to recognise routines forming, and to watch the work take shape through everyday use.
As the year comes to a close, we wish you a peaceful holiday, however you choose to spend it — together or on your own..
May the year ahead be filled with positive momentum, and an abundance of calm and peace — shaped by steadier rhythms and more meaningful returns.
From our house to yours, Happy Holidays.. ✨
