Packaging Unfortunately, we are still forced to use plastic packaging, which places a high burden for the environment. A suitable PVC-free packaging material have not been identified yet, but ultimately the best option is a product that does not require packaging or wrapping. The clothing industry has also not wrapped individual clothing items in plastic for many years already.

Company Profile

The At Home Collection is characterised by rough and sturdy materials that have been refined with a feminine and soft touch. We travel throughout Europe for At Home, to find items that touch us through their uniqueness, craftsmanship and imperfection. These materials inspire us to produce a unique collection that ensures comfort and character. The core values “simplicity”, “robust”, “authentic”, “feminine”, “softness”, “harmony” and “textures” are central for At home and the 2016 Spring Collection. Each At Home design is inspired by a place or moment. These special moments and places were recorded on polaroids that form the basis for our designs.
