Creative ethos

What began as a creative writing outlet is evolving into something dynamic: loveMELT, a place to explore creativity and live expansively.

After moving through fashion, tech, retail, art, and design, I realized my through-line wasn’t the industries or jobs, but a craving for more room to imagine, play, breathe, and change. loveMELT blends those experiences into a shape-shifting space that invites you to see the objects around you, and the ways you move through your days, differently.

It’s an experiment in possibility, a portal into alternate ways of seeing and being, and a place where objects, stories, and conversations can transform the everyday.

Think of loveMELT as an ‘in-between,’ a space to make your own moves.

loveMELT currently drops creative thinking and writing, artist discussions, art play, and design objects
