ZORAOBER

ZORAOBER is a knitwear and accessories brand founded by Zora Oberhänsli.
The project focuses on the development of knitted pieces that emphasize structure, material, and color, with particular attention given to process and craftsmanship.

Influenced by both mountain landscapes and urban energy, the pieces explore the beauty of material, colour, and the handmade gesture, through a functional yet sensitive approach.

Each piece is thoughtfully designed, developed, and handmade in the ZORAOBER atelier in Geneva, Switzerland, using natural or upcycled yarns, and produced in limited series.
ZORAOBER advocates for a sustainable, human-scale approach, where time, experimentation, and quality take precedence over mass production.
