The Functional Wardrobe
With a new design team based in Paris, led by our creative director, Petra Brichnacova, we have carefully developed The Functional Wardrobe—a comprehensive solution for effortless dressing every day. This thoughtfully curated collection consists of timeless, seasonless pieces that form the foundation of a permanent wardrobe.
As design enthusiasts and committed minimalists, we have distilled our products to the essential and extraordinary. Each design in our new collection serves a clear purpose and has a defined place. Crafted to suit modern lifestyles, these pieces are meant to be worn and cherished daily, becoming beloved, indispensable items that you’ll enjoy for years to come.
Employing oversized silhouettes and a muted color palette, our collection offers wearable, versatile, and seasonless pieces that effortlessly complement one another and seamlessly integrate into your existing wardrobe.
Carefully and sustainably produced, most of the pieces in the new collection are made by our trusted partners in Gubbio (Perugia, Italy), working either with Italian or Japanese fabrics. We have also started knitting in Italy, working with an exception quality, fully traceable and sustainable super fine merino wool yarn from Botto Giuseppe (Responsible Wool Standard). For our beloved Peruvian Pima Cotton, we have continued our work in Peru, expanding into GOTS Certified Organic cotton and working with a Certified Carbon Neutral facility that is also a B Corp.
Founded in 2013 by Esteban Saba and Petra Brichnacova, håndværk has become synonymous with meticulously crafted essentials that exude understated sophistication. At the heart of håndværk’s philosophy lies the belief that everyday essentials should be elevated, not ordinary. The brand understands that true luxury lies in the quality of materials and craftsmanship, rather than flashy logos or excessive ornamentation. As a result, håndværk focuses on creating pieces that are both timeless and versatile, designed to be worn and cherished for years to come.
The design aesthetic of håndværk is characterized by clean lines, minimalistic silhouettes, and attention to detail. The brand takes inspiration from Scandinavian design principles, incorporating simplicity, functionality, and a sense of understated elegance into each garment. Every seam, stitch, and hem is meticulously executed to ensure a flawless finish, reflecting the brand’s dedication to quality craftsmanship. The brand works closely with suppliers who share their values, prioritizing responsible sourcing and ethical practices. Håndværk believes in creating clothing that not only looks and feels good but also has a positive impact on the environment and the people involved in the manufacturing process. By focusing on quality rather than quantity, the brand aims to reduce waste and promote a more sustainable approach to fashion.
