Founded in 2017 by designer Ken Rao, Professor.E emerges as a bold narrative-driven brand, built around the fictional “Professor E” persona—a mysterious figure whose masked presence symbolizes curiosity, anonymity, and a collective creative spirit rather than ego or celebrity. 

Professor.E places a premium on natural textiles, emphasizing on texture, patina, and the tactile history they carry. These materials are elevated further through hand-finishes like plant dyeing, rust dyeing, and custom one-off treatments, creating truly singular pieces.
