“These look great! Love the animations! How did you get the drawer to drop open?!”
– Callum Robinson, Director at Method Studio
In 2019 Method Studio launched “Trunk Works” – a Method sub-brand specialising in incredible speciality trunk creations. These objects are about the most beautiful and exclusive pieces of luggage possible. This film documents the creation of the flagship G.T Trunk (The Grand Tourer) – burgundy leather, gold plated brass and scottish oak on the outside, cream leather inside. The finished trunk is stunning.
We had two visits to the studio and workshop at Beecraigs to catch work in progress. The bespoke elements and exquisite materials meant it wasn’t possible to repeat some of the processes so it was important for us to work closely with the team during the construction phases.
To finish we had some fun capturing a stop-motion sequence of tiny incremental movements to show the trunk rotating and opening in all its leather bound glory!
