Tangerine

Local designer and canvas craftsman Ashlin Ahlip grew up sewing his own pants, just like his grandmother taught him. His love for traditional canvas work encouraged him to get his work out there and launch his own brand of nautical-themed and Aruba-inspired products. Nowadays, he manages Tangerine, a cooperative of two local designers and makers crafting unique quality canvas bags and accessories, a matching tile collection and We The Beach People clothing. Known for their pop-up-event appearances, customers can now find all their handmade in Aruba creations at the Tangerine atelier store in the Royal Plaza Mall.
