About Pitch


Pitch was created in summer 2009 by Chil Loong. Chil is an Industrial Designer and entrepreneur from New Zealand with a focus on eco design. She grew up in the beautiful Wairarapa a region known for its stunning mountain range, lush forests, and rugged surf beaches.

Since developing as a professional designer in Beijing’s fast paced world of IT innovation, she has recently settled in Sweden. Here she is finding fresh inspiration, and a new focus for her creativity.

In 2009 she launched Concept Cove Design studio and Pitch - a design company focussed on ethical production of Eco-friendly bags and accessories. Pitch combines Chil’s love of design with her care and concern for this planet’s precious ecology.

Pitch designs are purposeful, beautiful and affordable. They embody Chil’s belief that unique style and quality should not cost the earth.
