About me

I'm Timo Lorenzen, founder of berlin. swimwear, a brand inspired by my passion for creativity, individuality, and sustainability. My journey has taken me from various leadership roles in Sydney's hospitality industry to discovering my true calling in fashion. For me, men's swimwear has always represented more than just a functional piece of clothing—it’s a canvas for self-expression. Whether at the beach or by the pool, swimwear allows us to communicate our style and personality without saying a word.

After years of working in business and leading teams, I realized I wanted to create something that truly embodied my personal values. That's how berlin. swimwear was born. I wanted to bring something fresh to the men's swimwear market—pieces that not only look and feel great but also promote sustainability and environmental consciousness. Every design in the berlin. premium collection is crafted with this vision in mind, offering bold, eco-conscious swimwear for men who want to feel confident while making responsible choices.

Starting berlin. has been a deeply personal and fulfilling endeavour (some say a midlife crises project), combining my business acumen with a genuine passion for fashion and the environment. Our collections are designed to give men the freedom to embrace their creativity and individuality, all while making a positive impact on the planet. Through berlin., I aim to inspire confidence, encourage expression, and help shape a more sustainable future for fashion.

Thank you for being a part of this incredible journey! Stay in touch? @tlosydeny
