It has come to this author’s attention that the coming week shall bring with it a most anticipated unveiling—one certain to stir the hearts of even the most composed among our creative society.

But this, dearest IOD Community, is no ordinary occasion.

For accompanying the Summer Collection’s debut will be a three-day affair of the most inspiring kind—an exclusive series of YouTube premieres, where IOD’s own artisans shall take center stage, each revealing their new projects and inspiration for your viewing delight.

Pray, take note of the engagements ahead which will all happen on our YouTube channel:

Pray, make your preparations for a most creative week together.
