  • You're listening to Eureka on Monocle Radio.

  • Brought to you by the team behind the entrepreneurs.

  • The show all about inspiring people, innovative companies and fresh ideas in global business.

  • I'm Tom Edwards.

  • Paul Jacklin is the co founder of Dazarelle, a Zurich based design label he launched with his girlfriend Amanda Bianca in 2020.

  • It began with upcycled bags made from sun umbrellas and has since expanded to include handmade leather goods, travel accessories and home decor.

  • Aside from being entrepreneurs, Paul and Amanda are also medical doctors who met at med school and bonded over their shared love for the creative arts.

  • So how do you balance a high pressure career as a doctor with with the often challenging demands of entrepreneurship?

  • Well, here's Paul now with more on how the journey began.

  • D'Azur El the name doesn't really mean anything.

  • It's a little bit inspired by Cote d'azur.

  • The feeling, the sun, the water, and it should deliver this feeling.

  • We create different pieces you can use in the daily living and the ideas that we prepared produce all of it in Zurich or as close as possible to Zurich.

  • The bags are made out of upcycled bags from rest fabrics, from the umbrellas, sun umbrellas.

  • So we collect them, we work with different companies and we collect these colorful fabrics and then we combine our bags.

  • So it started with our bags.

  • They were mainly meant for the summer or the spring, but over the time we also developed products for the winter and the spring.

  • And the idea is that the brand will provide things for the whole year.

  • So it's my girlfriend Amanda and me, we met in med school and we didn't met because we were both into medicine, but we were both into creative things and we did a lot of arts.

  • We both work as medical doctors and in our daily life there are so many things which inspire you for new ideas and it's a really good thing.
