Alpha Cruxis

Alpha Cruxis is a Berlin-based design project by Australian designer Rebecca Martin. Working with leather, Alpha Cruxis creates sculptural, minimal design objects celebrating material, technique and form.

Using traditional leatherworking techniques, each Alpha Cruxis piece is cut, sewn and finished by hand in our Berlin studio from the highest quality Italian vegetable tanned leather.

The debut 2013 bag collection from Alpha Cruxis ‘GEOMETRY’ takes shape in five striking, minimal designs using 3mm thick black leather and silver hardware.

Sarah Illenberger

Berlin based Sarah Illenberger is straight up a genius. Her work is incredible. I've blogged about Sonia Rentsch here before and if you think her work is cool... she basically learnt it from Sarah. Here are some of Sarah's 'Strange Fruits' work which are quirky, clever and meticulously created. You'll see on her site that this is only one folder of her work, but in browsing through the folder i couldn't help but show you all of it! I may do another post on Sarah sometime later; showing more of a range of her works, but for now... fruit & vegetables.
