Hello, September! It's almost time to go back to school, the office, and remote work (or to continue the search for new career paths), time to start autumn activities, and to jot down and organize our good intentions for the coming year. At OMG BCN, we're taking it all in good humor and have put together a selection of items and accessories to brighten up your return to the office.
DOIY Terrazzo yoga mat.
The month to continue pampering your body
Your body may start to take on a chair-like shape as the days go by after the summer break, so find some time during the day to reconnect with it, exercise and realign your posture, and take the opportunity to breathe deeply. We recommend the DOIY mats Whether for stretching or yoga, they have that ingenious touch that characterizes the brand. A terrazzo rug for understated style, and the Navajo-inspired model for those who love to travel.
Slim model backpack by Daniel Chong.
The month of backpacks
A good backpack will surely last through many school years, but if it's time to replace it this September, take a look at these suggestions from Daniel Chong and Ölend , both designed to carry a laptop. Daniel Chong works with recycled cotton fabrics and vegan leather (a must-have in this sustainability post), and his strengths lie in the finishes and color. The backpacks Ölend , made in Barcelona, are simple and elegant; they are made with a water-repellent canvas, so you won't want to do without them even on rainy days.
Wouf Lazy Jungle laptop case.
The month of new releases
For carrying your computer around, especially for 13" and 15" laptop models, we recommend a protective case like the ones from Wow ! At OMG BCN, we've been working with the brand for a while now and we love their original prints. Now we also celebrate their commitment to making more sustainable and responsible products. The new collection from Wouf It's made with 90% recycled fabrics and materials (recycled polyester, recycled yarn, and eco-friendly dyes). Great in both form and substance.
Don Fisher cases.
The month for new notebooks
Of course we love stationery, who doesn't these days? Especially products that make something as everyday as taking notes feel special. You can choose from notebooks by Walk With Me , paperback and splattered with paint, those of Miss Wood with cork covers, and those of the ever-ingenious Octagon , double-sided, with lined paper for writing on one side and plain paper for drawing on the other. We also have pencil cases, the school of fish and marine animals that spring from the imagination of Don Fisher (each one of them is handmade). Octaevo , for its part, provides us with a collection of bookmarks shaped like glasses that remind us that reading is always there, beyond summer.
KeepCup reusable cups.
The month to return to coffee and infusions
We're talking about Australian mugs Keep Cup In the sustainable design post: they're ideal if you take your coffee to go and represent a significant saving on disposable cups. For a more fun way to enjoy coffee, the coffee set from DOIY , which is stackable and turns into a cactus, and for something more relaxed, the cups of Matímañana . These are handcrafted in Montseny and stand out for their design and the beauty of their materials: silky, non-toxic ceramic and Bubinga wood handles. We think they're the perfect way to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
Volta Mobile.
The month of 'home sweet home'
We're the kind of people who feel a special thrill when we return home after a few days away on vacation, as if we're reconnecting with our space, the place where we spend most of the year. September can be a great time to make your apartment more inviting; we suggest adding a splash of color with prints from [unclear - possibly "prints" or "art prints"]. HEY Studio , the ones from Eloizaga , with whom we chatted recently, or the mobile phones of Volta , designed and manufactured in Barcelona, is a piece that is both decorative and artistic, perfect for playing and admiring. Discover the work of all the illustrators we collaborate with.
Candles To:From and cactus planter by Damián Quiroga.
The month to beautify your work table
If you have a home office, in addition to a good desk, a good chair, and good lighting, we suggest introducing some elements that allow for a certain visual and sensory escape. We like the ambiance created by candles and... To:From They're made with natural oils (the fragrance of orange and rosemary is a pleasant scent for everyone). Reserve a corner of your desk for a plant or a bouquet of flowers. They reconnect us with nature, decongest spaces, and bring us calm, just as we mentioned in our ideas for decorating with vases and pots.
