the organic factory.













Some of the best ideas start with pen and paper. Just look at how Gilles Belley brought his drawings and concepts to life.

Time to brush up on your German – or just your imagination.

"working" towards your calling.


A job pays your bills.

A career provides the powerful but fleeting satisfaction of job advancement.

A calling is what you live when you discover and utilize your greatest strengths in the greatest service to the world.

You can customize your own design too, not only by choosing the leather, but also the fabric.

Beautiful handmade leather bags (and a few other designs), by Canadian father, Nik and his son, Jack.

At Palmer And Sons we make all of our designs with only our own hands in Vancouver, Canada. My son Jack and myself design, prototype and produce each design one at a time from start to finish. Using traditional methods, heritage materials and vintage tools to bring you designs that are timeless and peaceful in their principles. We hope you enjoy our limited issue designs, we feel they speak to a slow, calm, and more enjoyable mode of life.

Makeup bag, please.

laptop sleeves by evan hecox.








Another reason to get my laptop fixed. Gimme gimme gimme!

Then I can go to Vida with my laptop and look “cool”. Of course I’d pick New York, but when it comes to these laptop sleeves by Evan Hecox – I want Tokyo.

sunbox.




Clever ideas. Out of the box, into the sun – clever ideas. Thanks to designer Jinsic Kim.

How does this Sunbox work then? It plays on this theory that on your way out to work, you hang out the device on your clothesline and when you get back in the evening, it’s all charged up. Latch it on to your TV, Music System, hairdryer; basically stuff that you use only when you’re back home!
