Soléa is a DIY cyanotype baby blanket kit inspired by a Korean first birthday tradition in which symbolic objects express hopes for a child's future. Using sunlight, time, and imagery representing happiness, health, connection, and growth, parents create a one-of-a-kind blanket through the sun-printing process. The finished blanket transforms these wishes into a lasting keepsake, reinterpreting a cultural ritual as a contemporary and personal experience for newborns and their families.
