Luminous Creative Co began a long-lasting cooperation project with HERMOSA KAMAKURA, from Japan.

Building upon this alliance, Eric was able to learn about the Japanese culture, deepening his knowledge about their artistic values, their traditions, their styles for designs, and their lifestyle. All this would inspire Eric, as he created new products and envisioned further ventures.

SEPTEMBER, 2008

Transformation into HERMOSA CO., LTD (China), becoming an overseas buying agent for Japanese brands.

By setting up a factory to produce and give life to the designs of the Japanese brand, the cooperation between Luminous Co. and Hermosa Co. was consolidated. Our partnership is strong and steady, and we have set common goals for the future.

Mavericks Edition California rebranded to MAVISTEN EDITION CALIFORNIA

While maintaining the original wild spirit from Mavericks Edition, Michael and Eric re-imagined their company, bringing with it a huge wave of energy along with a slight change to their brand - now Mavisten Edition - a catchy and off-the-wall name.
