Back to the office by take a nap

By PAP Magazine Editorial

Fashion meets office dread with sculptural absurdity draped in Post-it yellow. A figure stands shrouded in layers of memo-paper petals, each piece hand-layered into a voluminous coat that buries a pale-blue striped shirt, navy vest, and striped tie beneath. The sticky note reading 'I HATE MONDAYS' clings to the lips, turning ennui into wearable text. Across the fluorescent-lit office lounge—green carpet, orange modular sofa, translucent partitions—another protagonist stands atop the bench in a brown blazer, vivid purple knit, and brown trousers, arms raised in defiance behind a neon-printed mask. Take A Nap orchestrates the styling with precise corporate signifiers—checks, stripes, vests—then subverts them through outsize paper constructions and theatrical gesture. The palette pivots between office neutrals and saturated pops of cyan, violet, and lemon, grounding surrealism in the textures and topology of the everyday workplace.
