ARCHIVES AND ARTICHOKES began as a coincidence of alliteration—a nom de plume for myself. Call it manifestation or foreshadowing, but throughout my time at Parsons School of Design, I became increasingly interested in archives: printed matter, publications, and the ways knowledge is preserved and circulated. Concurrently, my practice gravitated towards food as a cultural and historical subject, which culminated in my undergraduate thesis, Perpetually, In Fermentation.
The studio's name reflects these two ongoing interests.
ARCHIVES
represents research, reading, and writing. It is the thread that connects design to inquiry. Besides client work, we (Kiara, Krisanda, and Putrilia—all one person) are currently developing Reading as a Map (title in progress), a publication exploring memory studies, reading, and annotations.
ARTICHOKES
represent food and what can bring people together around a table. More broadly, it stands for the commercial world in which design operates. Perhaps fittingly, the process of design is similar to an artichoke, layered with increasing complexity as it is peeled back.

Today, we (as in the singular person, Kiara): 
  1. develop visual identities and brand systems for clients across different fields,
  2. run Kafe Koji,
  3. work part-time at Pears,
  4. read far too many books,
  5. étudier le français,
  6. painting,
  7. heavily considering a master’s in museology in France,
  8. and always seeking different ways of learning.

The studio exists at the intersection of research and commercial, art and design, the tangible and intangible, the physical and the screen, archives and artichokes.

 Logo Design

Lifestyle
The Padel Place logo communicates motion. The ball icon references how it moves through space and interacts with the court, and the layered lines help create a sense of depth and repetition. It echoes the sport's pace and continuous rally, while also hinting at architectural elements such as court lines and net structures. This gives the icon more structural quality rather than it feeling purely illustrative.
