Born Different is a collection that honours difference — not as a flaw, but as beauty. Each design in this series speaks to a lived experience that’s often misunderstood or unseen.
----------------------------------------------------------- Just because you don’t hear me, doesn’t mean I’m not speaking. Some voices move through the air. Mine moves through hands, through rhythm, through light. I’ve always had something to say — I just speak in a way you weren’t taught to listen to. This piece isn’t silent. It just speaks differently. And maybe that’s all we need — not louder words, but better ways to listen. ---------------------------------------------------- This piece quietly honours the Deaf and hard-of-hearing community. Not all language has sound — some speak with hands, eyes, or just heart. I’ve been learning Auslan lately. And honestly, it’s beautiful — it has flow, rhythm, expression. Sometimes, all we need is to slow down, be present, and stay a little more curious. That’s how understanding begins.
