7. What's is
"Indie"? |
|
The Indie design movement is made up of independent designers,
artists and craftspeople who design and make a wide array of
products
without being part of large, industrialized businesses. They are
supported by a growing number of indie shoppers who are seeking niche
and often handmade products as opposed to those mass-produced by
corporations. Such products may include jewelry and other accessories,
ceramics, clothing, glass, metalwork, furniture, cosmetics, art and much
more.
Indie designers often sell their items directly to buyers by way of
craft fairs, street markets, and a variety of online marketplaces, such
as Smashing Darling, Etsy, Mintd and Lov.li. However, they may also engage in
consignment and/or wholesale relationships with retail outlets, both
online and offline.
The indie design movement can be seen as being an aspect of the
general indie movement and DIY culture. (back
