About

Anim is a contemporary design house based in Istanbul, founded in 2020 by Mina Dilber. 

The name Anim means “life” in Latin – a word that mirrors the brand’s essence: ever-moving, always becoming, rooted yet free. 

Textiles run deep in Mina’s family, with a lineage tracing back to the Ottoman era – generations who lived and worked with fabric, color, and craft. Anim is both a continuation and a reimagining of that legacy.

What began as a deeply personal vision has since grown into a lifestyle universe – spanning womenswear and home textiles — where ease meets intention, and every piece carries a story.

Anim’s design language is shaped by the textures and contrasts of Istanbul, the rituals of travel, and a reverence for cultural memory. Collections move fluidly between tradition and modernity, blending Turkish craftsmanship with a refined, contemporary silhouette. Striped traditional fabrics, handwoven linens, intricate crochet, in house designed prints and sculptural leather pieces come together in thoughtful harmony – crafted in partnership with local artisans, heritage workshops, and women’s collectives across Turkey.

At its core, Anim embodies a nomadic spirit – moving between worlds, between the stillness of home and the rhythm of the world outside.

More than a brand, Anim is a multidisciplinary space for storytelling –  a place where texture, color, and form celebrate life at its most soulful. Welcoming a global community into its ever-evolving world, Anim redefines modern luxury with a commitment to authenticity, craftsmanship, and timeless design.
