The concept of HANDUSTRiE offers sustainable solutions to empower craftspeople and promote the next generation of manufacturing. As a communication partner, we facilitate new collaborations and provide support in archiving. If you are a craftsperson interested in being part of this initiative, please reach out.

Developed as the result of my thesis, under the guidance of Prof. Dr. phil. Marina-Elena Wachs.

In collaboration with Sonepar and the soccer club Borussia Mönchengladbach, we developed a wearable e-textile vest that is sensitive to sound. It allows people with hearing impairments to feel vibrations through the garment when the stadium atmosphere reaches a high level of noise.

The mystical feeling of autumn is captured in the color palette and structures of our home collection, complemented by modern blue elements to bring brightness to the dark.

Embroidery: Made on ZSK machines, combined with artisanal handwoven materials.

Carpets: Hand-tufted and felted from wool.

Dobby Weavings: A wool-cotton blend, playing with structures and patterns of the woods.

The front is crafted from robust, eco-friendly fish leather, while the back and interior are made from vegetable-tanned leather produced in Kellinghusen, Germany.
Removing the knife from the case mimics the same lever motion, creating an intuitive experience.

This oyster knife case is designed for those who appreciate the luxury of fine food but are not afraid to get hands-on.

The traditional spindle of the hand-weaving loom resembles a boat riding on waves of threads.

The tapestry is designed with a continuous pattern that can be woven to custom measurements for specific walls.

MATERIAL: 100% Wool, woven in Germany

The ‚Woven Colour Palette‘ serves as both a development tool and a fashionable fabric. The initial circle showcases the pure threads used in the weaving structures, featuring a double warp in black and white. Purple, yellow, green, and red form the weft structures. Weaves numbered 1-11 demonstrate various possibilities in color and texture.
