Material Institute w/ Assemble Studio
Located at 2120 Port St. in New Orleans, Material Institute is a free fashion school teaching garment/textile design and manufacturing. The school was conceptualized by art curator Kirsha Kaechele of MONA (Musuem of Old and New Art in Tasmania) and designed by Assemble Studio (London). Atelier Orleans was involved in schematic consultation in the beginning stages. All photos by Kelly Colley unless otherwise noted.
