Fascinated by the natural material wood, the South Tyrolean Norbert Öttl trained as a cabinetmaker. But the young man had a second grand passion – modelling. As a model he was drawn from his home town of Meran to the fashion capitals of the world, in particular, the fashion city Milan, which became his second home. There, he not only learned a lot about fashion but also, to his regret, found that wood plays hardly any role at all in the fashion world. During his modelling career he had a brilliant idea of how he could combine both of his passions – wood and fashion – in the future.
Full of ambitions, following his return to South Tyrol in 2009, Öttl founded his own company. Since then, operating under the name EMBAWO, he has produced hand-made handbags and briefcases made of veneer. For his unique design pieces he mainly uses wood species from his homeland, for example, Maple, Oak or Walnut. But on request he also uses African woods. By the way, “EMBAWO” means nothing other than “wood” in Ugandan. As a person who feels close to nature, it is important to Öttl that the materials used by him, veneer and leather, are renewable raw materials and his production is therefore sustainable.

We decided to work with one of the most basic elements of architecture: the brick wall.
