Places are like meetings; they define roads and destinations, indicate directions, evoke atmospheres, memories and emotions. And, so it was for the Berlin company, whose first headquarters, a former children's day care centre (Kita in german) when preceded by an unequivocal adjective of belonging, suggested the name Mykita. But the company has also transmitted, like an imprint, a culture of curiosity and play through an open-minded way of working that has always focused on the authenticity of human exchanges and on fundamental values, linked also to a social sensitivity and respect for the environment.

It is no coincidence that the company founded in 2003, immediately became a point of reference for that innovative and iconic screwless hinge that we find today in the new collections. Unlike Moritz Krueger, the visionary founder of the brand at just 24 years old, few have managed to break the rules of large groups from the beginning, proposing a uniqueness that passes through the immediacy, simplicity and freshness of ideas. This is the result of a rapid, intelligent, deep and continuous search for productive and constructive solutions, of correlations with other scenarios, with other worlds, of visions that go beyond the dynamics and strategies of the company and look directly at the landscapes, at the people. Craftsmanship and technology, hands and machines, hearts all come together to build something unique, not only a company but a coherent style of life and work visually translated into Mykita Haus, a space that groups the activities of the company today in a historic building in the heart of Berlin Kreuzberg and that perfectly represents the holistic spirit of Mykita.

"Our modern manufactory gives us a consistent way of doing things. Combined with our established ingredients in construction, materials and surfaces, this ensures our products have a coherent design language. At the same time, our eyes are open to the world, we are curious and playful by nature, and developments in technology, culture and the zeitgeist all flow into our creative process – we think of it as infusing intelligence into objects”, says Moritz Krueger. And, not surprisingly, he mentions the term zeitgeist, a word that contains many others, immediately evoking a philosophical dimension, an attitude careful to grasp any mutation and new breath of the surrounding reality of his own era, and thus creating continuous connections and intertwinings with music, fashion, art and the film industry.
