Upcycling Production
Dzaino items are truly local low waste products. Using the Upcycling patchwork technique, all items are one-of-a-kinds.
"We buy our denim from a cooperation with Berliner Stadtmission, a charitable organisation serving people in need. Part of the preparation and manufacturing takes place at Delphinwerkstätten and faktura, two Berlin based workshops for people with disabilities. The other part takes place in our own studio in Berlin Mitte. We have a shop and showroom with office in this studio and a workshop studio in the back."
The collection
First product designed was the Yogamatbag. The classic Weekender and the Gymbag followed only a few months ago. Bestseller and initial product is the alltime loved Crossbag. Discover all Dzaino products here.
Dzaino Design
Dzaino’s design aesthetic focuses on a minimalistic use of form. The designers Hanna and Julia have always been fascinated by the idea of redesigning existing material. They found their unique design approach by combining traditional patchwork techniques with used denim fabric.
Rearranging the material to a clean look is at the core of the design process.
"We update craft techniques to create handmade, resource-friendly one of a kind pieces with a contemporary feel."
