About
Hi, my name
is Timothée, I’m a product designer focused on furniture and bag design. I
founded Copra to offer high-quality bags for people who travel by bike.
Long story short : in 2019, after working several
years in the field of industrial design and architecture, I began to think that
products can be made differently ; locally, at a small scale, from durable
materials. I quit my job and founded with a friend of mine, Formel, a furniture brand where each product is made by
the two of us, in our workshop in Paris, from locally and sustainable solid
wood. That same year, I began making bikepacking bags for my own needs. After
one year and countless errors, I was no longer just making bags for friends but
for people I didn’t even know, and what it began as a fine hobby was slowly
becoming a real job. Today, I know, more than ever that products, of any kind,
don’t have to be made at the other side of the world by large companies whose
profits are more important than the planet and its inhabitants. And the best
part of it is that each product is made to fit the individual’s needs
perfectly.
By buying local and small, remember that someone is living from his passion.
