C.NEEON

Based in Berlin Clara Leskovar and Doreen Schulz the designers behind c.neeon graduated from Kunsthochschule Berlin Weissensee in 2004. They won at the Hyeres International Festival the prestigious Grand Prix last year.

Their chosen title c.neeon is an amalgamation of their childhood nicknames.

The duo whose collections major on strong graphic prints with a hint of Mondrian and silhouettes with intriguing volume and architectural, asymmetric shape began their label while still at the KHB college where they originally met. Typical for c.neeon design are extensive prints which are always related to the pattern. 2004 they won the Galleries Lafayette Fashion Channel competition which resulted in an exhibition at Galleries Lafayette Paris.

Since Summer 2005 c.neeon has their atelier in Lichtenberg, where they share an old Kindergarden with other people, like photographers, painters, grafic designers or writers, but they do not only share the house, they all do projects togethe, for example, the graphic designers, anschlaege.de, helped organizing and creating the first solo exhibiton of c.neeon in summer 2006 at the Kunsgewerbemuseum in Berlin.
