A LETTER · MAGGIO 2026 · PIENZA

From the atelier.

Samuel is presently hand-drawing the first designs in his private office. Since the elbow injury — the Centre Court is closed on Thursdays, you may have read — he has, by his own admission, rather too much time on his hands. We will write again when the first lines have settled into something worth sending out the door.

— The House

Samuel sketching the first polo, fabric swatches and tools on the desk.
Fig. I The first polo, drawn at the desk. Racing green and aubergine swatches close to hand.

We write seldom, and only when there is something worth carrying.
