For @neptune_papers tenth issue titled “Icons”, founder Dag Granath reflects on the raison d’etre of Atelier Saman Amel through the interaction with a very special client @bengorham :
 
“Ben Gorham is a person who does not seek your attention nor your respect, yet he gets both. Ben is a longtime client, friend and a person we admire for his integrity, generosity and uniquely personal sense of style. Like any great mentor or client, he is a great supporter and critic at the same time. Always looking carefully and always making choices with intent. On occasions, we sit with fifteen fabric swatches on the table; all charcoal, all woolen flannel. For most people the sheer number of options becomes too much to handle (the burden of free will that lies heavy on the shoulders of men ever since Adam first bit the apple in the Garden of Eden seems particularly hefty when faced with cloth books, it seems). Here, Ben trusts his taste.
 
Taste… what a peculiar concept it is. So much weight is put into the word. It’s so serious. And it’s big business to have “good taste”! Many years ago, during one of our first meetings with Ben we touched on the topic of taste. He said that us that “in the age of social media, ‘good taste’ is a commodity available to anyone. The challenge is not to have taste that is good, but to truly develop your own taste”.”

We rarely talk about our clients but for @neptune_papers tenth issue titled “Icons” we asked our friend, client and mentor @bengorham if he would consider letting us shoot him during a regular fitting session. When @williamsdaytona asked me to write a this story in my own words I was happy to reflect on how meaningful it feels to serve our clients and learn from their experiences and approaches. Every encounter is a gift that we cherish. In the case of Ben, he is an individual we admired long before meeting him for what he has built and for his unique eye and point of view in matters of taste. An incredibly generous and thoughtful person who gets your respect without asking for it.
