We are happy to announce that our collection Aura has been selected amongst 50 objects in this beautiful book that has just been released:
Hemendik – The story of 50 iconic objects of the Basque Country.

The book tells the story of the Basque Country through this selection of industrial and artisanal objects, old as well as new.

It is the result of the work of the collective HEMENDIK, composed of professionals in communication, design, and intangible memory spread throughout the territory.

“There are several ways in which to learn about a country: looking at its history, landscapes, inhabitants, culture, languages, experiences… We decided to approach the wealth and diversity of the Basque Country through its things; so we called this book Hemendik – the word in Basque meaning ‘from here’. Little reflection is given to industrial or artisanal production; its heritage and cultural value is only too often underestimated. And yet exploring the story behind an object provides an opportunity to encounter an array of various contexts, whether geographical, historical, political or social. Through this selection of 50 objects we reveal numerous facets of a country that, split in different entities, lacks collective memory.” – Hemendik
