The Making of Session

In 2017, four friends found themselves, centered around a bong, deep in conversation. Why hadn’t smoking accessories been given the same level of design attention as any other product? The attitudes and perceptions around smoking were undoubtedly shifting, but the products used to enjoy them seemed deeply rooted in the counterculture of the past. We saw an opportunity to embrace evolving attitudes. We challenged ourselves to create products that felt more like home goods than something illicit.

Over the following year, we dedicated our nights and weekends to developing the brand. These work sessions, as they grew to be called, would focus on research, design and end with some high-level debates. We wanted to create a brand that focused on a state of mind and the act of making time to focus on something good. Naturally when naming our project, we wanted to embody the period we dedicated to this specific activity – a session.
