Visiting Globe Hope

My first visit to Globe Hope was not as fruitful as the others, because i could not get the name of the designers. But their propositions are quite wide. 
But after a couple of visits and some conversations with staff, i think i could understand the philosophy of Seija Lukkala.


Globe Hope has two shops, one in Kiseleff, Aleksanterinkatu 28, the other in Kluuvi, Aleksanterinkatu 33

in their webpage we can read

Globe Hope is an innovative Finnish design company that makes ecological design out of recycled materials. Globe Hope re-defines used and leftover materials, turning them into unique design clothes and accessories. All Globe Hope production relies on sustainable development, thus a part of Globe Hope's mission is to offer people an ecological and sustainable choice. globe Hope wants to encourage people to a more sustainable and nature-friendly way of thinking. Globe Hope’s collections that consist of clothing and accessories save and reuse nature’s resources and respect ethical production. Globe Hope’s main goal is to design goods that are aesthetic, functional and idea-rich - the use of recycled materials is a bonus. Globe Hope's ideology can be summarized in three keywords: ecology, ethics and aesthetics.


The materials are intriguing, old sails, old blankets, the cover of the Olympic Stadium tower during the renovation, advertising banners, and many other interesting matters. As well as in Edel, they use organic cotton or bambu for textiles.
They produce the clothes and objects themselves.
