SIA ARNIKA, the namesake label founded in Berlin by the Danish designer redefines the boundaries of self-expression through the fusion of art, culture, and sustainability. Inspired by Nordic mysticism, old folk tales combined with an investigation into contemporary culture, our designs challenge norms and embrace opposing forces to create a unique and thought-provoking alternative reality.
“Growing up on a small isolated island in Denmark I had intense feelings of longing and wanting to escape. My obsession with the unknown turned into an investigation of all around me, constantly dissecting literally everything, trying to understand why if felt this way. This kind of practice followed me and informed the way I work; how I choose fabrics, develop shapes and experiment with volumes.”
Reflecting the essence of minimalism and maximalism coexisting harmoniously, SIA ARNIKA's creations are a testament to the coexistence of anonymity and bold self-expression. We offer individuals the freedom to celebrate their uniqueness while contributing to a sustainable future.
Driven by innovation, our products tell a story that bridges the gap between tradition and the contemporary. We prioritize sustainability by collaborating with European-based manufacturers and partnering with suppliers to incorporate recycled and sustainable materials into our collections.
This seamless integration of diverse aesthetics encapsulates the brand’s core pursuit of merging minimalism and maximalism to create a new ‘experimental normality’. With one foot planted in the past and eyes fixed on the future, SIA ARNIKA aims to break from monotony and convention to move towards a fluid representation of our interconnected and ever-evolving world.
