Horizn Studios, a Berlin-based brand, was founded in 2015, fueled by a desire to provide relaxing travel experiences and broaden horizons. The founders envisioned the creation of a brand that could resonate with the urban, dynamic, and online-first sensibilities of the next generation. Horizn Studios quickly established itself as the first direct-to-consumer brand in Europe and a pioneer of innovation within the industry. The global community of Horizn Studios shares a curiosity about the world, its diverse cultures, and an eagerness for new experiences. With this spirit of creative openness and collaboration, the brand develops smart travel luggage, backpacks, and accessories that cater to both daily commuting and long-distance travel.
In 2016, Horizn Studios released the world's first luggage with a removable power bank, followed shortly by a GPS tracker. A few years later, in 2019, the brand worked with NASA astronaut Alyssa Carson to develop the world's first luggage concept for space travel and launched Horizn ID, the first-ever luggage configurator. Despite the global pandemic in 2020 and 2021, Horizn Studios persevered and continued its mission to become a frontrunner in sustainable travel.
Horizn Studios is deeply committed to sustainability, a commitment that led to another revolution in travel in 2021 with the introduction of the Circle One. This radically redesigned carry-on luggage exemplifies that performance and sustainability are not mutually exclusive. The Circle One, manufactured in Europe, is made from plant-based material innovation and is designed to be repaired, not replaced, thereby embracing a sustainable approach.
Quality is a cornerstone of Horizn Studios' ethos. The brand's design and development team prioritizes high-grade materials to craft products that can stand the test of time and daily challenges. Each product undergoes intensive testing cycles and quality controls before launch, ensuring that customers can rely on their travel companions for years to come.
The brand aims to promote conscious travel with smart, responsibly produced luggage that's designed for longevity and reliability. Taking on a leading role in sustainable travel is an ambitious goal for Horizn Studios, but it is one that the brand is dedicated to achieving.
Creative collaborations have been a source of inspiration for Horizn Studios. Reflecting the cultural zeitgeist, the brand has partnered with prominent companies like Beats by Dre, BMW, Soho House, Design Hotels, and Habitas. Horizn Studios has designed the Pro Model ST DJ case in collaboration with celebrated DJ and producer Seth Troxler. The brand has also launched a limited collection with well-known sound artist Emeka Ogboh, capturing the vibrant spirit of the West African metropolis, Lagos.
