Zona Urbana's unique design products with recycled materials
Description
Zona Urbana is a fashion company based in Sofia, Bulgaria. Since 2004, it has been manufacturing products using recycled materials. This includes design and production of bags or wallets, for instance.
Zona Urbana seeks to produce each item with its own unique style, by finding creativity in materials such as old newspapers, magazines, supermarket product labels, maps, among many others. The company's catalogue of products has already included a handbag made out of a mix of space comics from 1986 and 1930s music scores, or a 95% recycled wallet made of vintages maps of Sofia.
