BEDA

KRISTEN DIETRICH [1981, Graphic Design]

Based in Los Angeles, CA

Beda Bags are designed and manufactured in Indonesia in collaboration with a group of Indonesian pandan mat weavers. Beda offers an updated version of this traditional Indonesian craft by introducing contemporary design elements during this collaborative process to create a range of accessories different from anything else on the market. Beda purchases directly whenever possible, with the goal of building long term relationships and making a positive difference in these artists’ lives and communities.
