As part of a limited-edition release and one of the final drops from Vans Vault before the line transitioned to OTW, I led the creative direction for the Knu Skool campaign. Concepted and executed entirely in-house, the production was a two-person team. I developed the concept, styled the shoot, prop-styled, and collaborated directly with the photographer to bring the visuals to life.
The direction focused on materiality, tension, and nostalgia. We played with gravity and spotlighting to emphasize the shoe’s sculptural silhouette and premium textures. The visual language was bold but restrained, blending 90s-inspired form with a more elevated, editorial sensibility.
