Collaborations

YTN № 7 is more than a single vision. Alongside our own work, we carry a small, deliberately chosen roster of independent designers whose relationship to material, craft and intent runs parallel to ours — makers committed to the physical, the handmade, and the uncompromising. This is where we introduce them.

Eigengrau

Edward Bell, the designer behind Eigengrau, is an ex-scientist who became disillusioned with his work in the tech industry. In 2019, he started making clothes to reconnect with the physical and the human. In 2021, Eigengrau was formed with a focus on leather jackets. Eigengrau use animalistic leathers produced by small-scale artisans, and construction techniques that cannot be scaled or co-opted by industry. Every Eigengrau jacket is meticulously produced by hand in North London.
