Travel Story: Gothenburg, among the roots of Laguna Cyprien

In the creative process, we seek to uphold our roots, remember them, and find inspiration very close to our identity. Laguna Cyprien is a project composed of different roots, skies, and people, which is why we traveled nine thousand kilometers to evoke a very special part of our origin and thus share it with you.

 



Gothenburg, home and origin

Laguna Cyprien was born on Mexican soil, uniting the friendship of two creative minds, one originally from Mexico and the other from Gothenburg, Sweden. Although this project is built day by day in Mexico City, we cannot stop nurturing ourselves from this Swedish root.





Katarina's homeland, co-founder of Laguna Cyprien, welcomed us amidst the cold and calm that distinguishes Swedish cities. Nature was bidding farewell to winter, and we slowly saw spring approaching with blue skies and icy winds. The architecture and colors surrounded us with inspiration, stopping time and allowing us to absorb the present. And during our walks, we perceived some of our favorite scents, which we constantly seek to include in our spaces and which remind us of this little piece of land:
 

"The scents of the forest because in Sweden, a lot of time is spent in nature, in forests and lakes. Despite the climate, we spend a lot of time outdoors, all year round. Scents of dill, which is used in a lot of food."

The roots of Laguna Cyprien

Central to the founders’ shared vision for the brand and the lifestyle they lead and share through daily rituals is the Scandinavian approach to minimalist, efficient living. This is reflected in the products’ ingredients, their simple, high-quality nature, and their clean design that seeks to complement personal spaces.

This Swedish root has allowed the brand to be built from the essential: the contemplation of what surrounds us, our connection with nature, the construction of personal moments that we can inhabit in the present and the activation of the senses.
