Underwater
Reef life, fieldwork, and Fiji's aquatic environment provide the visual starting point.
Blue Ocean Designs
The world behind the art
A life shaped by Fiji's ocean.
Walt Smith's work brings marine life, coral restoration, and original art together. Blue Ocean Designs carries that perspective into pieces people can wear, use, and bring home.
Meet Walt Smith
Ocean experience, translated into color.
Walt's life and work in Fiji place him close to the marine environments that inform his art. Underwater forms, island color, and years spent around the reef become starting points for expressive patterns.
Every design can take on a different life—from a Bula shirt or dress to a bag, a piece for the home, or an everyday accessory. The artwork stays at the center while the form changes around it.
From reef to design
The connection is part of every collection.
