Frederique Constant's Highlife collection conveys, in its very name, a longing for the "refined life." It has an elegant integrated bracelet design, flowing and crisp in line, gathering onto the wrist an attitude to life that knows taste and knows how to enjoy.
What the Highlife seeks to convey is not showy, ostentatious luxury, but a refined everyday attitude that knows how to appreciate and enjoy the beauty of life. It reminds us that the so-called "refined life" lies not in how many expensive things you own, but in whether you have eyes that know how to discover and appreciate beauty, and a state of mind willing to cultivate and savour the everyday. The same day, the same life, with or without this state of mind, can offer entirely different scenery.
This in fact chimes with the core trait of an image creator. The most precious ability of a fine image-maker is having eyes that can discover extraordinary beauty in the ordinary everyday. A shaft of light at a street corner, a subtle expression on a face, the distinctive texture of a common object, these beautiful moments so often overlooked by busy people are exactly the treasures they capture and keep with the lens. To one who knows how to appreciate beauty, the world is everywhere scenery worth recording.
Cultivating such eyes that "know how to appreciate beauty" can greatly enrich a person's experience of life. It lets you no longer merely hurry past life, but truly "see" and "feel" it. When you begin to notice and appreciate the subtle beauty around you, you find that the ordinary everyday has, all along, hidden so much moving scenery.
What Zenz Twenty Studio believes in is that same conviction of "enriching life with an eye for beauty": the meaning of image creation is exactly helping people discover and hold the beauty in the everyday that is so easily overlooked. Like the Highlife living the refined every day, when you know how to appreciate beauty, your life becomes, everywhere, scenery worth treasuring.
