mono.gramm: A Sign of Identity
mono.gramm offers accessible items of clothing and related products for you. We believe that a garment reaches its full potential and raison d’être in the way it is used and combined with other items, the situation it is worn in. We see mono.gramm as a means to provide you with a framework, but you will define its essence and its personality. And thus, we encourage the traditional practise of personalizing your items by adding your initials or name to the label.
Life has many facets, and we aim at designing clothes that can adapt to any occasion: easy to wear, easy to love in your everyday environment, but exuding a subtle elegance that can be accentuated for formal needs. We achieve this balance through seemingly effortless and comfortable designs with an individualistic twist. mono.gramm evolves from season to season with a specific atmosphere in mind, but without neglecting the essential starting points for each collection: unusual but simple pattern constructions, applying techniques of draping and the use of modest materials. We value simplicity and beauty, but we also cherish depth and intelligence in the design, production and communication of our clothes.
Drawing upon the excitement and challenges of living and working in different countries, from Germany, France and Finland to England and China, mono.gramm is currently being developed in Berlin by Gunhild Kranz, Kai von Rabenau and Vera Cheng. We collaborate closely with mono.kultur magazine and share a network of designers, technicians and artists to encourage the exchange of ideas. In this spirit, we first introduced mono.gramm in 2008 with a photography exhibition in London that featured large, atmospheric images of a beautifully lazy summer day by the lake.
