REDISCOVERING THE ART OF THE TAN
THE ART OF VEGETABLE-TANNING LEATHER
Vegetable-tanning is the true “chromium-free” method, and does not have harmful chemicals. It is an old-world, artisanal process that takes advantage from the tannic acids naturally found in some plant species, by using the barks, branches, leaves and even some fruits in some specific techniques. Watch the video below and learn a little more about this ancient artisanal tanning method.

PLASTIC IS PLASTIC
IS THERE SUCH THING AS VEGAN LEATHER?
People often ask us do we use vegan leather or do we offer an alternative to leather. To answer this big question, we first want to talk a little bit about vegan leather and the reasoning behind our material choices.
Vegan leather has been marketed as the ethical substitute for leather. Yes, there may be some truth to that. However, we dare to say that there is no such thing as ‘vegan leather’. The right term is ‘leather-like’, meaning that the material is not leather but looks like it. The leather-like look is done by embossing a pr ..read more

LEATHER MENU CARDS

Fabrik’s food concept is inspired by Italian and French food culture. Fabrik focuses on sourcing high quality ingredients directly from Italy and France, but they also want to support Finnish local producers as much as possible. The traceability of our ingredients is a fundamental aspect of their concept. They want to create a delicious, casual and easily approachable dining exper ..read more

Supercell commissioned LUMI to create an exclusive Christmas gift for all their hard-working, and equally hard-traveling, employees.

RELAXATION WITH A NORDIC TOUCH
LUMI X MONOQI
Fragrances tend to be associated with flowers, fruit, and spices. But the smell of snow?
The scent of a winter breeze is something we all know, but it’s one that’s hard to pin down—and the inspiration behind an entire line of seasonally scented bath products. Founded in New York in 2000, LUMI’s main products are eco-friendly leather goods, but fascinated by the cold season, Finland-born designer Sanna Kantola decided to capture it in bottled form. LUMI is the Finnish word for snow—and the label’s creations are a cozy addition to relaxing time sp ..read more
