“Each design starts as hand-drawn artwork,” explains the brand’s co-founder Sophia Meurs. “From there, we treat acetate as an art medium, much like paint, layering color, translucency, and pattern so each piece has depth, movement, and personality rather than a flat finish.”
“Collaborating with MoMA Design Store feels like collaborating with New York City itself. This collab is rooted in translating art into functional objects, whether drawing inspiration from iconic works in MoMA’s collection, such as The Starry Night, or responding to the spirit of the city itself. The products continue that dialogue of connecting art, design, and routine.”
“We primarily work with plant-based cellulose acetate, a more sustainable alternative to traditional petroleum-based plastics. It’s derived from renewable sources like wood pulp and cotton fibers, allowing us to create pieces that are durable, expressive, and more environmentally conscious.”
Solar Eclipse specializes in hand-crafted, small-batch products designed in New York City that reimagine everyday objects. Hair clips were the starting point because they’re often overlooked—utilitarian items used daily, but rarely considered as objects of design. Rooted in nostalgia and everyday ritual, the brand transforms functional accessories and homeware into expressive, intentional objects.
