A New Kind of Paradise
MEGA|March 2022
In this Garden of Eden, the forbidden is a lost concept
BANGGO NIU and MARIAN SAN PEDRO
A New Kind of Paradise

“Lean in, move slow.”

When Banggo Niu felt in sync with the free-flowing energy of Jessie Ware’s song “Adore You,” he found his design inspiration gravitating towards the feminine and the sultry—concepts that were far from his normally minimalist aesthetic. Despite this, he felt a strong call towards this new direction and he found himself following suit.

His new path was clear and definite, and it was a one way street to a young, feminine, and romantic aesthetic. Not everyone can find a piece of heaven, more so manifest it into existence, but in Niu’s new collection, he brings an enlightening exploration to his own alluring vision of paradise.
