CALILA is a product design studio from Los Angeles. It is the journey in functional design and study of a minimal aesthetic. Pronounced (Cuh-lee-luh), the name is a manifestation of love for both California (CALI) and L.A. New designs always start with a need. Questions are asked like, "What product can't currently be found?", "What product should perform better?", "What aspect of lifestyle currently has a space that needs to be filled?" Then the designers break down the lines of the product as driven by the functionality. They think about geometric shapes, folds and creases, angles and intersection. They look for balance in asymmetry. They eliminate the unnecessary. There is no loud branding, no excess pockets and zippers, but even further, CALILA has even gone so far as to eliminate exterior stitching on many of their products. CALILA is focused on build quality, construction and functionality details. Once they have reached a design they love, they build many prototypes, tweaking the construction each time. Their design philosophy is simple, but reflects a focus on design at each stage of the process: Simple + Functional = Beautiful
