Designers, stylists, and curious minds: welcome!

New products pop up every day — but most of them feel the same. After 15 years in Europe’s startup scene (and helping build brands myself), I’ve seen how rare truly good products are — the ones with real taste, soul, and a story.

This newsletter is my antidote to the algorithm. Each week, I handpick 5 beautifully designed, under-the-radar products from across Europe. The kind of things you don’t find on Amazon.

Just the good stuff. Straight to your inbox, every weekend.
