FAQ
Why is your brand called "Baçura"?
The name came from the Spanish word basura, which means waste. To give a twist to this word, the [s] was replaced with the [ç] cedilla, which changes the appearance of the word yet still maintains the sound it originated from. The name toys with the idea of waste. Our goal is to disrupt the world view of what it really means and to eliminate the concept of waste, by seeing it as fuel for something else, rather than the end stage of a product.
