Issue no. 12 of Plethora Magazine delves into hidden patterns behind all natural form in pursuit of the fractal codes that shape progressions of growth, transformation and dispersion in the vast splendor of organic structures. When tracing the archetypical outlines of these dynamic configurations, intricate formulars are revealed that allows profound insights to the blueprints of the seemingly chaotic fabric of life. Slowly a new order appears in the wild lines of turbulence, propagation and dispersion and clues emerge that we may later harness through a fragmented prism of logic and intuition of form.

I denne smukke bog fortæller Nina Ferlov om sit personlige forholdt til planterne i sin lille frodige byhave, og hun portrætterer dem i ord og akvarel, en for en, gennem et kalenderår. En kærlighedserklæring til haven og naturen og en poetisk havevandring gennem årstiderne.
Nina Ferlov er akvarellens mester, stoftrykker, tekstildesigner og billedkunstner. Hun har boet i sit byhus med en lille have i Middelfarts gamle købstadskerne siden 1972.
Breath falling beneath settled cold, Voices drifting in sudden current. Translucent silence oscillating from the void of the moving veil.

ZERO is a radical expression of simplicity. A reset. The origin of a new perspective: the antithesis of excess. An exploration of freedom found within purposeful parameters. Carbon neutrality embraced as a formative concept; the foundational motif of a fragrance. Every element shaped by reduction. The clarity of restraint.
Fewer ingredients: a shorter formula, meticulously assembled. At once in line with the Comme des Garçons fragrance philosophy and the preservation of resources. Rich, natural cedarwood – hand-harvested and extracted using hydroelectric power – enlivened by a fresh breeze of Bergamot. The raw seduction of musk and equitably-sourced Haitian vetiver patchworked against illusory beauty: an overdose of synthetic rose, a varnish accord. A subversive harmony of dichotomies. An untraceable wood.
Comme des Garçons’ iconic pebble reconsidered within a new framework. A fully-recyclable glass vessel. The bare minimum of printing. Black ink and FSC-qualified paper. A balance sought between maximal sensory impact and minimal environmental consequence
