Spirit of Rising Stars: New Brands to Discover This Year

This year’s lineup brings together an exciting mix of makers and creatives. Discover the creative world of Faju, explore unique pieces from Haydns Art, or find something distinctive from Tee-J. From the thoughtful designs of Mellow and BARE LA TERRE to KOTT, Maison Nazanin, House of Janneke and GIVABLE, there are plenty of new names waiting to be explored.

BARE LA TERRE

In 2024, two sets of friends - mothers Elise and Nicola, and daughters Mia and Nahla - decided to solve a problem. The market was full of brands that spoke Mia and Nahla’s language with vibrant colours and fun names, but beneath the surface, they lacked the safety and integrity their mothers required for young, diverse skin.

Bare la Terre is what happens when parents and children join forces.

Faju

Faju’s founder and chief maker has spent most of her life looking at the world through a lens. As a photographer, you learn to slow down to notice the quality of light on a surface, the texture of something rough or worn, the quiet beauty in an object that exists without trying. At some point, she wanted to make something with her hands. Not capture it. Make it.

KOTT

Founded in Seoul by trained florists, KOTT began with a simple idea: flowers can exist beyond the vase. Each piece is handcrafted using premium wax, fragrance, and preserved botanical materials. More than candles, they are objects that live within a room creating presence, memory, and quiet moments of connection.

Today, KOTT is found in museum stores, design shops, and independent retailers around the world.

Maison Nazanin

Maison Nazanin is more than a brand it is a living dialogue between East and West, an ode to beauty born across borders. At its heart is Nazanin herself: a designer shaped by the quiet elegance of Persia and the bold precision of European design.
