Inspired by tastemakers Anita Pallenberg and Veruschka, the collection also references Longchamp’s historic ties to leather craftmanship. Fringing, animal prints and ikat fabrics lend the collection a bohemian vibe, as showcased by the brand’s must-have Amazone and Cavalcade bags. grc Longchamp, Passeig de Gràcia 86, 08008 Barcelona, +34 93 272 3907, longchamp.com FOR MAP GO TO PAGE 46

Camper called upon Japanese architect Kengo Kuma to redesign its Passeig de Gràcia store. Kuma used traditional clay roof tiles as decoration throughout the store, giving the space a unique look and feel. The curved tiles feature on walls, the counter and as shelves. This contemporary use of a traditional material is a true reflection of Camper’s creative approach to shoe design. grc Camper, Passeig de Gràcia 2-4, 08007 Barcelona, +34 93 521 6250, camper.com FOR MAP GO TO PAGE 46

Barcelona has long been a source of inspiration for artists and artisans alike.

Now the city’s leading handbag brands are producing their own unique works of art, as Lucinda Turner discovers

‘G

rowing up in Barcelona, I had the privilege of witnessing art and architecture around me every day,’ says Montse Freixes, founder and designer of Barcelona-based handbag brand Nita Suri. ‘I fell in love with the works of Gaudí that decorate my city. It is what inspired me to marry art and architecture into my designs,’ she says. Nita Suri is part of a new wave of creative handbag brands in the Catalonian capital that have begun to look beyond purely practical necessities to create pieces that focus on shape, structure and a unique aesthetic.

That’s not to say, though, that the pieces aren’t still beautifully useable. ‘I believe a woman should never have to compromise between

In Barcelona, architecture and handbag design are the perfect combination fashion and functionality,’ says Freixes. ‘In addition to using the highest quality leather, Nita Suri models are extremely lightweight for easy carrying, weighing only 400 grammes, and include a wide opening and light lining, which eliminate the hassle of trying to locate your belongings.’

The brand’s designs are characterised by their striking silhouettes, most notably the Lia triangle bag and the sphere-shaped Pilo style, both of which are interpretations of the famous towers of the Sagrada Família basilica. ‘I am committed to manufacturing each piece as an architect would, with extreme precision and imagination,’ Freixes explains. In Above (both): Nita Suri’s Pilo sphere bags

Barcelona, it seems that architecture and handbag design are the perfect combination.

Founded in 2012 by Melissa Losada and Marcela Velez, Barcelona-based label M2Malletier offers structural bags directly inspired by world-renowned Catalan architect Ricardo Bofill – who is behind some of the most iconic buildings in the city, including the Teatre Nacional de Catalunya national theatre, the W Barcelona hotel and Barcelona’s airport. M2Malletier includes a signature metal bar across the top of each model, making its pieces instantly recognisable with minimal

branding – a popular trend among many of Barcelona’s most chic creators.

Alongside the structured shapes, the brand’s bags can also be identified by its innovative use of fabrics. From supple calf leather in refined colours to the spring/summer 2019 additions of denim, snakeskin and metallic leather, M2Malletier’s designs replicate the vivid colour and diversity of the city where they are conceptualised. Although the brand has fans and stockists across the world, it is through the culture and influence of this exciting Spanish city that the label continues to find inspiration.

And it’s not just inspiring

designs that can be found in Barcelona. Many brands are now opting to complete their entire production process here, from sketch to finished item. Bags are inspired by the city’s grand and imposing buildings, and there is also a growing awareness around sustainability, ensuring that all aspects of production stay close to home.

‘For us, sustainability means proximity,’ says Ana Gallego, owner and designer of SurSac. ‘Our entire collection is produced in Barcelona by local artisans.’

With its boxy, stylish designs, clearly reminiscent of the geometric shapes found in the city, SurSac is a brand truly

committed to honouring Spain’s long relationship with leather work. ‘It was always clear to me that Barcelona would be an important pillar of the brand,’ Gallego explains, ‘not only on an emotional level, but also because I wanted all the production to be local, involving people from the city in my project.’

SurSac, Nita Suri and M2Malletier adhere to the ideal of positive luxury with their standout designs. The mantra of ‘buy less, buy better’ is at the heart of each of these brands.

The bold sculptural shapes of their bags offer timeless

alternatives to passing trends – these are bags to be loved and worn time and time again, year after year. ‘We don’t work with seasons,’ says Gallego. ‘We believe in pieces that can transform and evolve, avoiding throwing them away every six months.’ And Freixes agrees: ‘Sustainability and longevity should be of utmost importance and priority in the luxury market.’

For an object to surpass the fashions of the day and stand the test of time, it needs to be truly unique – and Barcelona’s latest handbag brands epitomise originality, much like the city itself

РУССКИЙ ПЕРЕВОД 26: ARCHITECTS OF STYLE

АРХИТЕКТОРЫ СТИЛЯ Многие годы Барселона вдохновляет художников и мастеров. Люсинда Тернер рассказывает о главных барселонских брендах сумок, которые создают истинные произведения искусства «Мне повезло: я выросла в Барселоне и могла каждый день наблюдать искусство и архитектуру вокруг, – рассказывает Монтсе Фрешес, основательница и дизайнер бренда Nita Suri. – Я обожаю здания Гауди, которые украшают мой город. Они и навели меня на идею объединить искусство и архитектуру в дизайне сумок». Nita Suri и другие каталонские бренды новой волны вышли за пределы чистой функциональности, чтобы сосредоточиться на форме, структуре и неповторимой эстетике. Нужно отметить, что удобство при этом не теряется: «Я считаю, что женщина не должна жертвовать ни стилем, ни функциональностью, – утверждает Фрешес. – В Nita Suri мы используем кожу высочайшего качества, но при этом сумки получаются очень легкими, всего

55

400 граммов, и их удобно носить. Кроме того, они широко открываются и у них тонкая подкладка, поэтому найти нужные предметы не составит труда». Сумки этого бренда отличаются смелыми силуэтами. В числе самых примечательных – модели Lia в форме пирамиды и Pilo в форме сферы. И обе обыгрывают башни собора Саграда Фамилия: «Я прорабатываю каждую вещь так, как это делал бы архитектор – с максимальной внимательностью и фантазией», – поясняет дизайнер. Похоже, что в Барселоне дизайн сумок и архитектура – это идеальный творческий союз. Еще один барселонский бренд M2Malletier основали Мелисса Лосада и Марсела Велез в 2012 году. Они создают структурные сумки под впечатлением от творчества каталонского архитектора Рикардо Бофилла, который построил национальный театр Teatre Nacional de Catalunya, отель W Barcelona и барселонский аэропорт. У каждой модели M2Malletier есть фирменная металлическая ручка, что делает их легко узнаваемыми при минимальном количестве логотипов. И это популярный тренд среди барселонских дизайнеров.

M2Malletier также

предпочитает использовать ткани необычным способом. Даже если это привычная телячья кожа, то она будет обязательно изысканных цветов и очень мягкой. А в коллекции весна-лето 2019 появились деним, змеиная кожа и металлизированный эффект. Модели M2Malletier как будто повторяют яркую палитру родной Барселоны. Культура и образ жизни этого удивительного города остаются основным источником вдохновения для M2Malletier, хотя география поклонников и продавцов бренда охватывает весь мир. Барселонское вдохновение не ограничивается только дизайном. Сейчас многие бренды стремятся построить весь свой производственный процесс здесь, от первых эскизов до готовых вещей. Люди все больше интересуются экологичностью, и для этого подхода важно, чтобы все этапы воплощения замысла проходили рядом с домом. «Для нас экологичность подразумевает близкие отношения, вся наша коллекция производится в Барселоне местными мастерами», – делится Ана Галлего, владелица и дизайнер бренда SurSac. Его квадратные модели однозначно напоминают геометрические формы, характерные для этого города.

Но что еще важнее, SurSac плотно работает со старинной испанской традицией обработки кожи: «Я всегда понимала, что Барселона должна быть важной опорой для бренда. Причем не только на эмоциональном, но и фактическом уровне. Я хочу, чтобы все наше производство было локальным, чтобы люди этого города тоже участвовали в моем проекте».

SurSac, Nita Suri и M2Malletier твердо придерживаются принципов позитивной роскоши. Ценности, лежащие в основе их коллекций, наиболее точно выражает слоган «покупай меньше, но выбирай лучше». Смелые силуэты их моделей стали вневременными альтернативами временным трендам: такие сумки стоит любить и носить много лет. «Мы не работаем с сезонностью, – уточняет Галлего. – Мы верим в такие вещи, которые могут трансформироваться вместе с вашим стилем, поэтому их не нужно выбрасывать через шесть месяцев». С ней согласна и Фрешес: «áкологичность и долговечность – вот что должно быть преимуществом на роскошном рынке». Сумки, которые выходят за пределы быстрой моды и выдерживают проверку временем, должны быть понастоящему уникальными. Новые барселонские бренды способны на столь высокий уровень оригинальности. В общем-то, как и сама Барселона. globalblue.ru | globalblue.com

TRADUCCIÓN AL ESPAÑOL 26: ARCHITECTS OF STYLE

ARQUITECTOS DEL ESTILO Barcelona se ha impuesto desde hace mucho tiempo como una fuente de inspiración tanto para artistas como para artesanos.

En la actualidad, las marcas principales de bolsos de la ciudad están produciendo sus propias obras de arte, tal y como Lucinda Turner nos descubre “Al crecer en Barcelona, tuve el privilegio de presenciar el arte y la arquitectura a mi alrededor todos los días”, comenta Montse Freixes, fundadora y diseñadora de la marca de bolsos Nita Suri, con sede en Barcelona. “Me enamoré de los trabajos de Gaudí que decoran mi ciudad. Es lo que me inspiró para combinar arte y arquitectura en mis diseños” afirma. Nita Suri es parte de una nueva corriente de marcas de bolsos de la capital catalana que ha comenzado a ir más allá de las necesidades puramente prácticas para crear piezas que se centran en la forma, la estructura y cuentan con una estética única.

No obstante, eso no

significa que las piezas no sean perfectamente utilizables. “Creo que una mujer nunca debería elegir entre moda y practicidad”, comenta Freixes. “Además de utilizar el cuero de la mejor calidad, los modelos de Nita Suri son extremadamente ligeros para que sean fáciles de utilizar (solo pesan 400 gramos) e incluyen una gran apertura y un forro interior de color claro que eliminan las molestias cuando se intenta buscar alguna pertenencia”.

Los diseños de la marca se caracterizan por sus impactantes siluetas, en particular su bolso triangular Lia y el estilo Pio de forma esférica. Ambos diseños constituyen interpretaciones de las famosas torres de la basílica de la Sagrada Familia. “Estoy comprometida a crear cada pieza como si fuera una arquitecta, con precisión extrema e imaginación”, explica Freixes. Parece que en Barcelona la arquitectura y el diseño de bolsos son la combinación perfecta.

Fundada en 2012 por Melissa Losada y Marcela Vélez, la marca con sede en Barcelona M2Malletier ofrece bolsos estructurales inspirados por el arquitecto catalán de fama mundial Ricardo Bofill, quien está detrás de algunos de los edificios más icónicos en la ciudad, incluido el Teatre Nacional de Catalunya, el hotel W Barcelona y el aeropuerto de la ciudad. M2Malletier incluye una barra de metal distintiva en la parte superior del modelo, lo que hace que sus piezas se reconozcan

al instante gracias a un elemento sencillo, una moda popular entre muchos de los creadores más chic de Barcelona.

Además de por sus formas estructuradas, los bolsos de la marca también pueden identificarse por el uso innovador de las telas. Desde cuero suave de becerro en colores refinados hasta la incorporación de tela vaquera, piel de serpiente y cuero metálico para la colección primaveraverano de 2019, los diseños de M2Malletier reproducen los colores vivos y la diversidad de la ciudad donde se conceptualizan.

Aunque la marca cuenta con seguidores y distribuidores en todo el mundo, continúa encontrando la inspiración a través de la cultura e influencia de esta apasionante ciudad española.

Además, en Barcelona no solo se pueden encontrar diseños que inspiran. En la actualidad, muchas marcas están optando por completar todo su proceso de producción aquí, desde el boceto hasta el producto final. Los bolsos se inspiran en los enormes e imponentes edificios de la ciudad. Asimismo, cada vez existe una mayor consciencia sobre la sostenibilidad, lo que asegura que todos los aspectos de la producción se queden cerca de casa.

“Para nosotros, sostenibilidad significa proximidad”, afirma Ana Gallego, propietaria y diseñadora de SurSac. “Nuestra colección se produce al completo en Barcelona y por artesanos locales”. Con unos diseños cúbicos y estilosos, globalblue.com

claramente reflejo de las figuras geométricas que se encuentran en la ciudad, SurSac es una marca completamente comprometida a honrar la larga relación entre España y la marroquinería.

“Siempre he tenido claro que Barcelona sería un pilar importante de la marca” explica Gallego, “No solo a nivel personal, sino también porque quería que toda Arriba: Bolso SurSac Her 3D

la producción fuese local y que incluyese a personas de la ciudad en mi proyecto”.

SurSac, Nita Suri y M2Malletier se adhieren al ideal del lujo positivo con sus diseños sobresalientes. El mantra “compra menos, compra mejor” es parte esencial de cada una de estas marcas. Las formas atrevidas y esculturales de sus

bolsos ofrecen una alternativa atemporal frente a las modas pasajeras; son bolsos para amar y llevarlos una y otra vez, año tras año. “No trabajamos con las temporadas” comenta Gallego.

“Creemos en piezas que pueden transformarse y evolucionar para evitar desecharlas cada seis meses”. Freixes asiente: “La sostenibilidad y la longevidad globalblue.com

deberían ser de importancia capital, así como una prioridad en el mercado del lujo”.

Para que un objeto supere las modas del momento y resista el paso del tiempo debe ser realmente único, y las últimas marcas de bolsos de Barcelona ejemplifican la originalidad, similar a la que se puede encontrar en la ciudad.
