What Akwa Atelier is
The Atelier surface is a founder-curated production lineup. Limited-release garments authored against the Akwa V2 ontology spec, with identity anchors locked at design time: construction grammar, piece count, drape, palette, origin-specific structural moves. The full Tech Pack ships with each Atelier piece — multi-view technical flats, BOM with Pantone references, spec sheet, grading table, QC checklist, fit notes, reviewer notes from the paired AI review (Reviewer B and Reviewer C). Wait-list driven; releases announced via the Akwa newsletter and Atelier waitlist confirmation email.
