    • Re:So has collaborated with Chancellor Theo Paphitis' central London art shop, London Graphic Centre, and now has a shop-in-shop selling a selection of popular art materials. 

      The student team at Re:So manage the products by working with the London based team, two of whom are Solent University alumni.  Purchasing manager Suzanne Hack studied BA (Hons) Illustration and graduated in 1998 and operations manager, Zain Husain graduated from BA (Hons) Popular Music and Record Production in 2012.

    • The vintage collection at Re:So is sourced by students. We plan each buying trip in advance to ensure each piece of the collection is well thought out and trend led. This also helps the students gain industry knowledge of what it is like to be a buyer within a retail environment.

      The collection follows what has been forecast to be on trend for vintage that season, meaning that we have pieces that are specifically picked for the customer for the current season, not just what the buyers think should be on the shop floor.

      The majority of the vintage products are single pieces, meaning we don’t usually have multiples of the same garments, which adds more meaning behind each great find.

      Products from Re:So Vintage are available to buy in store.

    • Spirals in Design is a range of furniture and furniture accessories incorporating the shape of a spiral found in nature. The spiral’s precision is achieved by using laser-cutting technology. Easy to transport, set up and use, the products act as a centrepiece to inspire and bring the essence of the 'natural' into your home.

      Design for us is the creative process of developing an idea into a made product: exploring the relationship between art and engineering, creating aesthetically pleasing forms inspired by nature, and communicating the concept in a way that’s easy to understand and use.

      The range is used as a benchmark for product design units showing how to take an idea from concept to production, as well as branding, packaging and legalities.

      Products from Spirals in Design are available to buy in store at Re:So.

    • Artwork inspired by land and sea, place and time, plants and animals, twilight skies and the magical moon. Wendy Hall has had a love of drawing and painting for as long as she can remember. She studied at Solent University (when it was Southampton Institute) and graduated with a BA (Hons) Fine Art.

      Various jobs in archaeology, museums and theatre have informed her artwork. She has worked in quite a figurative and illustration based style, exploring feelings of belonging to the landscape and connection to the history of a location.  After art college, Wendy worked more in abstract painting. She now enjoys working in both an abstract and figurative way.

    • Wolfe Academy products are manufactured solely using renewable green energy from wind and solar power. The products are screen-printed by hand in Somerset using eco-friendly water-based inks, and then hand finished by us in Wiltshire. Wolfe Academy creates small batches of unique pieces, made with care and designed to last, offering an alternative to fast fashion and mass consumption.

      Through a combination of innovative product design, low impact organic agriculture, efficiency in manufacturing, and by replacing standard grid electricity with renewable wind power, many of the products at Wolfe Academy are classified as carbon neutral. This is something the brand is very proud of and continues to work towards.
