Cooperative Studio Brand Facts

Cooperative Studio was founded in Ankara, Türkiye, in 2019 by Ayça and Genco. The brand works with local producers, women’s cooperatives and artisans in Türkiye, bringing craftsmanship together with contemporary bags and accessories. Its slow fashion approach values handwork, texture and considered design. Its quiet luxury aesthetic highlights shape and the character of materials.

Materials vary by design

The collections include paper yarn, recycled cotton, fabric and metallic yarn. Daily Crochet Tote is hand-crocheted from 100% recycled cotton. Cube Bag Linen is made from 100% linen. Metallic Clutch has a main composition of 80% paper and 20% metallic yarn, with a 100% cotton lining. Check each product page for its own materials and construction.

Craftsmanship and local production

Production partners and techniques vary by product. The cotton fabric used for Hand Wowen Tote is handwoven by a women’s cooperative in Denizli, and the bag is sewn by another cooperative. Crochet and fabric designs have their own production details.
