THE IDEA BEHIND OMNIÅ STARTED WITH A LIGHTER THAT SPARKED THE CONVERSATION BETWEEN; CO-FOUNDERS ANYAH AND DIEK. ANYAH,  DEDICATES HER LIFE TO THE CONSTRUCTION AND DESIGN OF OMNIÅ INSPIRED BY THE LIFETIME SHE SHARES WITH HER PARTNER DIEK, AND THE MEMBERS OF THE COLLECTIVE; WITH MUTUAL CREATIVE PASSION THEY JOINED FORCES IN CREATING A LOVE CHILD, OMNIÅ.

DIEK RUNS THE SOLID NUMBER MACHINE THAT DRIVES OMNIÅ. AN ETHOS OF HIGH-QUALITY PRODUCTS, STRONG-FUTURIST-CONTEMPORARY DESIGN COMBINED WITH FUNCTIONALITY AND THE INVOLVEMENT OF ADDRESSING SOCIO-POLITICAL MATTERS IS WHAT LED THEM TO CREATING THE PLATFORM THAT IS NOW KNOWN TO BE A COLLECTIVE OF LIKEMINDED CREATIVES.

AS AN INTERRACIAL COUPLE – NEXT TO BEING BUSINESS PARTNERS – DIEK AND ANYAH EXPERIENCE A VERY SIMILAR MINDSET DESPITE THEIR DIFFERENCE IN CULTURAL BACKGROUND, WHICH IS A KEY ELEMENT THEY LOVE TO WORK WITH. THE BLENDING OF CULTURES TO EMULATE ONENESS HENCE THE NAME "OMNIÅ". 

 OMNIÅ REFERS TO THE LATIN WORD 'OMNIA' WHICH TRANSLATES TO 'EVERYTHING' OR 'ALL'. WITH THIS REFERENCE THE COLLECTIVE IDEA OF TOGETHERNESS IS APPARENT AND THEY CHOOSE TO EMBODY AN ATTITUDE WHERE EVERYTHING & EVERYONE IS INCLUSIVE, HENCE LIVING AND BREATHING DIVERSITY, AND PUSHING THE SCOPES OF TALENT AND INTERACTION.

A LOVE FOR THE SAME MUSIC, ART & FASHION, DESPITE CULTURE, RACE, RELIGION, GENDER OR ANY OTHER DEMOGRAPHIC SEGMENT. NEXT TO FOCUSING ON PRODUCING SOME OF THE MOST PROGRESSIVE BAG DESIGNS THEY AIM TO COLLECTIVELY EDUCATE SOCIETY ON A FAIR – NON-DISCRIMINATING – STATE OF MIND THROUGH ALL PROCESSES THE BUSINESS IS INVOLVED IN.
