Leather Craftsman & Web Developer.
Hi, I am Don Dinh.
I craft leather goods for those who appreciate unique values where they can find a piece of their own personality in every product.
For me, the most important thing is creating "real" items: simple, durable, and free from unnecessary details that distract from the core essence. I work with patience and absolute precision, ensuring every hand-sewn stitch is perfectly placed to create a product that lasts a lifetime.
Whether it is a bespoke wallet or a handcrafted bag, my core mission remains the same: creating craftwork with depth, authenticity, and understated elegance.
And when I am not in the leather workshop, I trade my awl for a keyboard. As a web developer, I build technical solutions with the same meticulousness and rigorous structure that I bring to every piece of handcrafted leather.
The Journey.
My story began in 2019 with a simple piece of leather and a desire to create something lasting. Over the past 7 years, I have dedicated myself to mastering the art of hand-sewn leather craft, focusing on the patience and precision that only manual work can provide..
In 2024, driven by curiosity and a desire to learn something new in my free time, I started diving into computer science. After completing Harvard's CS50x, I taught myself web development. This website is the result of that curiosity built with Next.js and TypeScript to showcase my craft.
Technical Toolkit.
- Frontend: Next.Js, React, Tailwind CSS, TypeScript.
- Backend & Tools: Git, Django, ExpressJS, Node.Js.
- Working environment: Arch Linux, Sway, Neovim (LazyVim).
- Creative: Lightroom.
