Guest | Inder Bedi
Founder of Bedi Studios

We share our world with countless life forms. As humans, we are the sole species on this planet compelled to innovate and create. In addition to connecting and inspiring those around us, creativity should also be sustainable for generations to come. 

BEDI was established in 2019 by Inder Bedi, the creative ethos being driven by the onus of cleaning up and preserving our planet.We create pieces that are grounded in elevated utility whilst contributing to the circular economy- from exceptionally sustainable materials to the tailoring skills of our Canadian makers and finally in creating a second life once an item has reached the end of its present life. The result is a slow collection of precise designs with impeccable detailing.

Thank you for joining our movement as we reshape our future to fulfill our brand promise.

ONE DAY EVERYTHING NEW WILL COME FROM SOMETHING OLD.
