Wear History! (How to transform a 1913 skylight into a luxury scarf to increase sales)

In a recent product launch, we were asked by a client to look at an amazing glass skylight built in 1913 by Walter Horace Judson and come up with a luxurious product to capture the essence of the dome.

The rotunda at the National History Museum (NHM Los Angeles) is a prominent architectural element of the museum. The dome is adorned with a beautiful stained glass skylight (see below), and the rotunda serves as a central hub for visitors to explore various exhibitions and galleries.

The museum's rotunda and dome provide an impressive and welcoming space for visitors to start their exploration of the natural world.

We reviewed this beautiful snippet and icon of history and came up with a couple of silk scarf options for our client. We wanted to capture the essence of the design but felt the design may be too dark hence we took some artistic liberties to come up with our version of the silk concoction, see below.


We create custom silk scarves which become collectibles.

Our clients wanted more of an interpretive representation of the museum centerpiece hence we went back to the drawing board and presented the version you see below. This design represents represents the 'Wear History' theme. It's a one of a kind, unique, luxury product which serves as a reminder of the museum and the rotunda. These luxury scarves can be used to thank donors and also be sold in the museum gift stores. They are a limited edition, collectible gift item which can be changed as exhibits change.
