LATX|BAGS & ACCESSOIRES
Handcrafted accessories, designed between Switzerland and Mexico, uniting contemporary design with regenerative material development.
Each bag, pouch, and accessory is made from the Oaxaca Collection’s meterware — textiles developed by LATX Biomaterials in collaboration with Mangas San Gabriel and Mangas El Compita.
The material combines natural latex with Cempasuchil, Grana Cochinilla, and Indigo-dyed base fabrics, resulting in a surface that is both durable and sensually tactile.
Unlike conventional leather or textile production, the pieces are not sewn.
Instead, each element is joined and sealed using liquid natural latex — a process that fuses structure and surface into one continuous form.
This method, both precise and organic, gives every object a seamless strength and a distinct visual identity, handcrafted by artisans in Mexico in collaboration with LATX Biomaterials.
The same meterware from the Oaxaca Collection is available for pre-order. Bridging research, production, and community every piece reflects a dialogue between function and form, ethics and aesthetics — water-resistant, refined, and alive.

The materials are derived entirely from natural sources — latex, textiles, and pigments such as Cempasuchil, Grana Cochinilla, and Indigo.
Because every batch is mixed and applied by hand, colour and surface may vary slightly, revealing the organic nature of the process. Over time, the material develops a rich patina, deepening in tone and texture — a visible trace of touch, care, and use.
