Add a stunning element of nature to your collection this spring. Koi Design Studio is the creation of local resident Sadie Allison, who grew up exploring the scenic beauty of the rocky mountain region. Drawn to the strength of the ocean, she moved to Southern California, where she now resides with her husband and three children. Allison’s fashion-forward designs combine organic beauty and elements of the earth to form original contemporary wearable art. Like the koi, her pieces symbolize strength, courage, purpose, fearlessness, love, and affection. (858/207-8144, www.thekoidesignstudio.com) JANE SHIOMI
