Travis Barker teams up with Buster + Punch to create skull-themed design collection
Travis Barker has collaborated with London fashion label Buster + Punch to create the Skull Collection. The collection fuses music, fashion and interior design.
The Skull collection includes door stops, a cast bowl, cabinet knobs, a table lamp, candle holders, jewelry and clothing. It also features a drum key made to Barker‘s specifications. The items are made with solid metals, sand and investment cast and hand-finished to ensure no two pieces are the same. You can check out some of the items below.

Barker spoke on the skull imagery in a press release. “I’ve been obsessed with skulls forever — from the first time I saw artists like Pushead, who put skulls on the Misfits and Metallica albums, and Zero skateboards back in the day,” he says. “I’ve always loved them. They scream rock ‘n’ roll. They scream danger and poison. Skulls stand against everything, so to present them in a way like this and take it to a new level is special.”
The founder and creative director of Buster + Punch, Massimo Buster Minale, also spoke about the collaboration. “Travis and I have poured our blood, sweat and styles into this collaboration,” he says. “The range grew from a beautiful sketch Travis made of a drum key and ended up as a statement of design today — unexpected, functional, fluid and, most importantly, impossible to pigeonhole. In this way, it’s a collection that reflects our outlook on creativity.”
