The project

How it all started

IntroductionOur commitmentsMaterials & Innovation

“I believe that transforming our perspective can change the world, because progress lies in daring to look at things from a different angle.”

Maider Mendaza, Founder of MAISON ADMIRE 

Our project was born, as the name suggests, of admiration. The deepest and most sincere admiration we feel for beauty, for women, for nature, for art, for technology, and for solid commitment to change. And it is precisely this totality of admiration that we seek to express, pay tribute to and enhance, but also vindicate and defend, through our bags.

We believe that fashion today must only be developed from a sustainable, environmentally responsible and ethical lens. For this reason the only materials we use are biomaterials and 100% recycled products. The current climate emergency simply does not allow for any other way. We wish to promote a holistic way of understanding beauty: everything surrounding the creation of our bags is dealt with care, attention to detail and respect. We want to inspire and be inspired. To grow together.

We seek to move forward without forgetting where we come from. That’s why we fuse traditional craftsmanship with the full range of possibilities offered by 3D printing. This symbiosis results in exclusive bags that, from a point of view similar to the art world, are unique editions. No two MAISON ADMIRE bags are exactly alike.

As each of us are unique, so are our bags.

THE ADMIRE FOREST

Environmental responsibility is one of our founding pillars and informs every phase of our product development. For every MAISON ADMIRE bag we sell, we plant a tree. This is how we are creating the MAISON ADMIRE Forest. A space full of natural beauty from which to fight climate change and protect local biodiversity

SUSTAINABILITY

The climate emergency is an urgent problem with global repercussions, and we believe it’s on us as contemporary brands to propose solutions and alternatives. Within this line of reflection and action, the use of environmentally-conscious materials for production is an essential issue for MAISON ADMIRE. Because it’s something that concerns us all.

TECH CRAFT MADE  IN SPAIN

We’ve looked to the past to create the future. The future is hybrid, it is truly the blending and fusing of technologies, perspectives and identities that will shape a new way of understanding fashion using a disruptive approach. This is how we make our artisanally produced vegan bags with 3D-printed, organic-inspired handles. All made in Spain thanks to the collaboration of local artisans and tech companies.

Our Commitments

We have one goal: to create beauty with as little environmental impact as possible. We understand fashion as an exercise in finding avenues of inspiration and self-expression. But also as a space from which to reflect, define ourselves, and get involved in social change.

We are dedicated to art, to women, to nature, and to everything that gives meaning to our lives. That is why it is so important to continue to grow and evolve within a conscious and sustainable context.

All of our materials are organic and recycled and, among other initiatives, we want to put the spotlight on the incredible natural spaces we are lucky enough to enjoy. We do that whether through projects such as the MAISON ADMIRE Forest, or by reporting on unique places where nature and art merge, creating meaningful works that pay homage to the most important thing we all share: the planet.

We want our bags to be unique, like each one of the people who carry them, and at the same time for them to be a declaration of our mission: to care for nature, to care for the environment, to care for each other.

Materials & Innovation

To believe in the future is to believe in a creative and sustainable way of working with new technologies.

All our vegan, organic and recycled materials are the result of innovation and technological research focused on reusing and giving new life to components that until now had no further use. This is how we succeed in creating bags whose beauty lies not only in their design, shape, colour and texture, but also in their origins and development. These bags have a very low environmental impact, thanks to combining technology with the materials from which they are made. 

Choosing 3D printing for our organic handles allows us to achieve results that are available only using this technique. In addition, the final finishes are done by hand, creating a unique bag for every occasion. 

Modelling and 3D printing gives us total creative freedom, and we only produce what is ordered. In other words, to create without producing unnecessary stock, minimising our environmental footprint.
