We cross paths with strangers who sometimes go on to become surprisingly important people to us. We share their stories, learn their quirks, pick up their habits, and wear their influences like the clothes on our backs.

The first of our UNIFORM portraits explores identities and the people of our team, beyond their distinct personal styles. We took on different personas for the day, dressing ourselves up in someone else’s clothes, and for just a few hours, did our best impression of the people we were supposed to be portraying.

Through this experiment of sorts, we came to understand how, no matter the clothes, the stance, or the character, each one of us is truly our own person, and we celebrated our differences even as we gained just a little bit more of an understanding of each other.

This series, and the end of this week, also marks Sam’s departure. Sam, the UNIFORM team wishes you well in all your adventures ahead, and all the best in your journeys to come. While the office will miss your presence, there’s always a family waiting for you back where you left it.
