Divexia: Let's build a space for the adult neurodivergent community

Helloooo! We are Ro (autistic) and Gian (ADHD) and together we form DIVEXIA, a clothing brand created so that neurodivergent people (autistic, ADHD, dyslexic…) can feel represented, understood, and part of something.

Our garments not only communicate, they also care. They carry vegan, recycled, and fair-work certifications. We are committed to comfortable materials, details designed for people who are sensitive to certain textures (we use a backing layer behind every embroidery) and a thoughtful, ethical, and close-to-home production process.

But over time, DIVEXIA has become more than just clothing. It has become a community. A space where many people found something difficult to explain: feeling understood without having to constantly justify who they are.

And now we want to take the next step. We want to open our first physical space in Barcelona. A place where one part will be a production workshop for our garments and the other a space designed for the neurodivergent community. A space where we can:

• Create our current and future garments

• Run workshops and activities in small groups

• Record a video podcast to give visibility to neurodivergent experiences

• Share experiences and connect with our community

To make it happen, we launched this campaign on Verkami.

And this is where you come in❤️, with your support we can turn all of this into something real.

Get Exclusive Rewards

All garments in this campaign will be special Verkami editions.

The designs of the tote bag and the t-shirt will be completely exclusive and will not be sold later on. However, for the hoodie, we are offering you early access.

Link to sizes and more detailed photos

Exclusive Verkami Tote Bag

It will feature a more artistic design that represents Divexia. A print of our logo along with our motto “Making the invisible visible”. In addition, it includes sewn details made of vegan leather with laser engraving.

Exclusive Verkami T-Shirt

The t-shirt will be a minimalist piece but full of details. It will feature four multicolored X’s hand-stitched around the neck, the logo and the phrase “DIVEXIA TEAM” embroidered on the chest, and our motto “Making the invisible visible” printed on the back of the neck. Tag-free t-shirt with a soft backing layer behind every embroidery.

DVX Hoodie (Early Access)

The hoodie will have a minimalist front and a more urban back. It will feature the word "DVX" embroidered on the front, a large "DVX" print and the logo embroidered on the back. Finally, it includes sewn details made of vegan leather with laser engraving.

Who we are

Ro

I am the most creative and social part of Divexia. I take care of:

• Planning and creating content

• Marketing and social media

• Connecting with the community

• Researching and studying neurodivergence

• Designing the concept of the garments

• Creating sewn details and laser-engraved elements

When we have the physical space, I will also organize workshops, events, and the Divexia video podcast. I will look for people from the community to carry out interviews and deeper conversations about neurodivergence and personal experiences.

Gian

I am the more technical and production-focused part. I handle:

• Preparing files for embroidery and printing

• Managing the embroidery process and applying backing layers to improve garment comfort

• Preparing and organizing orders

• Financial management and logistics

• Supporting content creation and reels

When the space exists, I will also run some workshops related to hobbies and creative skills. I will also help with the technical side of the video podcast.

How we currently work

We currently produce everything from our home. We design the garments ourselves and carry out embroidery and printing using domestic machinery.

The DTFs (prints) are outsourced, but the entire creative and production process is handled by us.

We have taken part in different showrooms and community events, although we mainly work on a made-to-order basis.

We prefer to produce in a more conscious and careful way rather than keeping large amounts of stock stored for months.

We want each garment to have the care and attention it deserves.

What we will use your contributions for

The initial goal of this campaign is to reach €6,500. The funds raised will mainly be allocated to:

• [30%] Rent and initial deposit for the space

• [30%] Production of the rewards

• [20%] Small renovations and adaptation of the space

• [10%] Textile and embroidery materials

• [10%] Packaging and shipping

If we exceed the goal, we will be able to:

• Access a more comfortable and welcoming space

• Upgrade machinery and production equipment

• Expand the collection to other products (shirts, caps, etc.)

• Create more activities for the community

Estimated timeline

Once the campaign ends and funding is received, we will immediately begin production of the rewards. Our estimated timeline is:

First month:

• Purchase of materials (tote bags, t-shirts and hoodies)

• Preparation of customization (threads, DTF prints, vegan leather, etc.)

• Initial search and adaptation of the space

Second month:

• Production of all rewards

• Packaging and shipping of all rewards

• Conditioning of the space

We prioritize careful and detailed production. We will also keep you updated throughout the entire process here on Verkami and on our Instagram.

Space opening

We want to celebrate this project together with all the people who make it possible.

That’s why we will hold an in-person opening in Barcelona for backers, friends, family, and people close to the project.

It will be an opportunity to discover the space, see how we work, meet us in person, share time together, and celebrate the beginning of this new stage.

If you can’t attend in person, don’t worry — we will also hold an online opening (YouTube or Instagram).

We want the whole community to feel part of this project, no matter where they are.

+ Divexia is not just clothing

It is identity. It is visibility. It is community. And above all, it is a place where many people can feel understood.

If you have ever felt different, out of place, or misunderstood, we want you to know that this space is also for you ❤️
