as already mentioned via facebook and instagram there are some bad news to announce. bad at first sight, but i get back later on that.
i decided to stop the pillow case production. the reason, short cutted: my manufacturer decided to switch to the use of synthetic fabrics instead of cotton. after rethinking and discussions with myself and my bearded man, i concluded that this is the point to make a new start. to rethink the philosophy behind bastisRIKE. or to be precise, to set it as top priority when it comes to business decisions.
sustainability has been important to me ever since i work on my own products. but meeting your own ambitions isn’t always that easy and every now and then you have to make a compromise. however, sometimes a compromise is just too big, it’s a bad one.
so i decided to slow down and to be even more picky when it comes to new products and new methods of production. since a long time i’m dreaming of working on small cooperations and limited editions together with craftsmen or other designers. i have been missing courage to approach this goal way too long. it’s time to value my own work and the work of others on a higher level.
and if this means i have to take a step back or to reduce bastisRIKE’S range of products, in my eyes, it’s worth it.
good news.
thank you for your support!
