Why is the brand logo a hound? It all began with a nightmare.

Having been chased by dogs as a child, large canines were a deep-seated fear of mine for a very long time. That terror eventually crept into my dreams, where ferocious hounds would constantly charge at me. Until one night, in the midst of a dream, I stared down at my own hands. I watched them twist and deform, finally morphing into a hound with its jaws wide open.

Waking up in a cold sweat, I immediately sketched that image. From that day on, fear turned into fascination. I became consumed with creating these disproportionate, distorted dogs. As I kept drawing, the creature naturally became my soul signature.
