Series 1

The message of the project

Design for Cultural Collaboration with Series 1 represents the first BTC collaboration, bridging Studio Cumbre with different artisan communities from Latin America to create their first traditional handmade capsule collection. The DCC platform introduces a new B2B business model aimed at preserving cultural heritage and promoting transparency in the fashion industry. By connecting global brands with traditional artisan communities in Latin America, DCC fosters creative dialogues, practices fair trade, and generates products with a positive social impact. The platform offers brands transparency solutions, including supplier verification and product authentication for handmade goods across Europe.
