The five-year-old label, which hails from New York, has made a name for itself by taking a socially conscious and ethical approach to sourcing. Its new space brings together a range of like-minded brands, including eco-friendly beauty company Tata Harper and Indian-inspired jewellers Madhuri Parson.

In collaboration with health and wellness expert Jasmine Hemsley, the space also features East by West, a café that fuses ancient Ayurvedic food principles with fresh, seasonal British ingredients.

During its three-month residency, the space will play host to a rotating programme of events including performance art, screenings, live music, chef tastings, book launches, poetry readings and an exclusive show by illusionist Asi Wind.
