Apapacho World, a Mexico City-based design brand, is capturing the attention of the artisanal market with its sustainable pottery designs. Featuring beautiful organic shapes and mesmerizing textures, Apapacho World’s products stand out through the employment of traditional hand-building techniques and the use of locally sourced materials—from clay and onyx to marble and volcanic rock. By embracing traditional crafting techniques and fusing them with contemporary shapes and forms, Apapacho World is successful in striking a good balance between contemporary design and cultural heritage.
As a brand, Apapacho World also emphasizes the importance of fair wages for the local artisans they work with and environmental conservation efforts. As such, certain parts of the business are very deliberately eco-conscious—the biodegradable packaging, for example.
