“I'm proud of the dialogue we have with our customers. We've developed a kind of sixth sense for knowing what they want. We really appreciate and value all the hard work that our buyers and designers do.”
Peter Simons, Chief Merchant
In the minds of Guy Snover and Daniel Martinez, everything turns in circles! The designers created a zero-waste circular process in which the decor object shines as the hero from its conception to well beyond its useful life.
Got old tights?
Recycle them!
Simons is taking part in the Swedish Stockings recycling club, which collects hosiery and upcycles it into furniture. Look for the boxes in our Miiyu departments where you can drop off your used or unused nylons: we accept all colours and brands!
Urban Hives on Our Rooftops
For four years now, we've been involved in saving the bees, the busy workers who play a crucial role in maintaining biodiversity.
Each year, in collaboration with Alvéole, we harvest the fruits of their labour: honey! To help you savour their hard work, we've created gourmet boxes. Visit us in store to pick one up.
