4. Designers
CIN OKO - Cin is a Nigerian
American born designer
based in New York. From
childhood she would sketch
people, nature, and clothing
obsessed with the idea of
creation. In pursuit of her
dreams she moved to New
York and enrolled in
Parson’s the New School for
Fashion Design.
5. Designers
Gahee HA - Born and raised in
Seoul, Korea to a very artistic family,
the young girl would view every
wallpaper and object in her house as
a canvas and amuse her parents with
her "oil painting" on curtains. Kay
was inspired to find how her design
ideas can become viable artistic
products through her collaboration
with several designers, which led her
to fall in love with fashion, a medium
through which she could turn her
artistic vision into clothes that people
wear on a daily basis.
6. Campaign
Our mission is to create an effective, innovative,
creative, and engaging Internet marketing
campaign for the pre-release of H+OKO’s
