ABOUT THE KINDCRAFT

Together with our global team of contributors, THE KINDCRAFT publishes a digital magazine and a curated newsletter which explore all areas of the design and making process with original essays, trend reports, interviews, and photography. We also tell the stories behind many of the products we sell in THE KINDCRAFT SHOP, which features limited edition design collaborations and a curated collection of handmade goods and slow fashion. Our work has been profiled by WGSN and Entrepreneur Magazine and we now offer advisory and design services to brands, businesses and groups around the world who, like us, are invested in promoting more ethical design processes and the celebration of cultural heritage.

Correct and respectful attribution of an artist’s work is important to THE KINDCRAFT. Please contact us if you find any errors in our crediting.

Here in California, we’re staying indoors a whil

Here in California, we’re staying indoors a while longer as fires continue to rip through our beloved landscape. It’s heartbreaking - but I’m also finding inspiration reading the @fibershed_ book. In it, Rebecca Burgess reminds us that clothing is a product of the earth - just like our food is - and should be part of a climate beneficial circular system. Her book is a must-read for anyone interested in sustainable fashion and textiles. x x

After a quiet spring, our consulting work has picked up and we’re engaged in some exciting projects! We’re currently creating online shops for brands and artists, curating an event, sourcing materials, and designing fashion and lifestyle products. We tailor our advisory services to the needs of each client so please send us a note on expert.thekindcraft.com and tell us how we can help you. (Photo from Mashiko, Japan, 2016.
