ANY DIARY November
Collaborations 2025
When I look back on this year, I don't think first of collections or numbers – but of people, encounters and shared ideas, from which "we could..." suddenly became something very real.
2025 was a year of collaborations for ANY DI. Three of them particularly touched me because they show what our brand stands for: stories, connection, and the courage to think differently.
ANY DI x Pâtisserie Johanna
When craftsmanship becomes a matter of the heart
This collaboration is far more than a design project for me – it is a tribute to a young woman whose dream lives on.
Contact with Inka Orth, Johanna's mother, was established via Instagram. Johanna was a talented pastry chef who practiced her craft with great attention to detail and tragically lost her life in the Ahr Valley flood disaster of 2021.
Today, Inka, Ralph, and Marcel continue to run Pâtisserie Johanna in Hamburg, fulfilling Johanna's lifelong dream. Their strength, perfectionism, and passion touched us so deeply that we created two exclusive button patches for our iconic SunCover: a small Black Forest cake and a butterfly – symbols of enjoyment, craftsmanship, transformation, and hope.
For me, this project shows that design can be more than "just beautiful": it can carry on stories, preserve memories and connect people.
It was all the more wonderful that we were able to celebrate this special collaboration together in Hamburg – with a launch event at Pâtisserie Johanna, where storytelling, craftsmanship, and emotion came together in one place. An evening full of encounters, exchange, and a whole lot of heart.
ANY DI x beyerdynamic
Design meets sound
Another collaboration where fashion and technology intertwine: our partnership with beyerdynamic.
beyerdynamic stands for German premium sound and precision, we at ANY DI for design, materiality and function – the result is a product I love: our joint headphone case.
Made from fine nubuck leather in khaki grey, combined with vegan leather and elegant metal details, it is for me the perfect translation of “Design meets Sound”: an accessory that not only protects but also makes a statement – a statement piece for all those who make no compromises on style and performance while on the go.
Here, fashion and audio technology come together on an equal footing, demonstrating the power of each side contributing its own strengths.
ANY DI x Ray-Ban
When icons meet
Our collaboration with Ray-Ban is a true milestone for me. Ray-Ban is an icon that has been making eyewear history for decades – all the more special that we were able to develop a product together as equals.
The result is an exclusive SunCover that unites the DNA of both brands: iconic Ray-Ban red, deep black, clean lines, high-quality craftsmanship, and smart everyday functionality. Not a simple logo placement, but the result of a creative exchange: What does an iconic product feel like? How does it remain timeless yet innovative?
For me, the ANY DI x Ray-Ban SunCover perfectly represents this moment when visions meet – tradition & revolution, perfectly aligned.
However different these projects may be, they all stand for the same values: attention to detail, courage to explore new paths and genuine collaboration instead of superficial co-branding.
For me, this is the most beautiful realization of the year: The strongest products are created through dialogue – with partners who, like us, want quality, relevance and a touching story.
Thank you for joining us on this journey and being part of the ANY DI Family.
Love,
Anne
