Julie Progin & Jesse Mc Lin co-founded Latitude 22N in Hong Kong in 2008. The duo designs, creates and makes porcelain collections from tableware to lighting, drawing up from their different backgrounds and experiences to find a new, fresh perspective on their own traditions. They create collections in which design and skill come together, always seeking to work in places and with people with amazing history, stories and expertise. The creation of each item stems from the collaboration between the designers and the makers– it weaves and forms Latitude 22N’s story.
“We aim to connect with traditions whilst always having something new to say. We identify ourselves as a link between craft, industry, design and users and seek to stimulate a dialogue through our work.” - Julie and Jesse
