based in: zurich, switzerland
founded by: Anna-Katharina & the collab team, 2017
products: everyday items, limited editions & fun things

Since day one, collab zürich has always created its own products. Long before opening collab, founder Anna-Katharina already had her own label and loved turning ideas into physical pieces.

In the early days, many products were handmade directly in the collab atelier at the back of the store (which is our office today) - from hand-painted tote bags to limited edition pants that were sewn in the collab atelier. Over time, collab grew into more than just a store. It became a space for creative projects, collaboration, sourcing and storytelling.

Today, collab zürich is the name under which we create our own pieces - from T-Shirts and cuddle cloths to small everyday objects and postcards. Some pieces are produced by us in our atelier, others are developed together with partners and makers around the world. What connects them is the collab spirit: personal, playful and made to bring joy.

collab zürich stands for

fun - limited edition - personal
