Julio combines design and fashion with attitude and identity. Creativity as dialogue – personal, conscious, timeless. Monkey Fam as a space for shared visions.
When function meets art. The limited Monkey Fam Edition, designed by Julio Jonas , combines full modular functionality with a clear, artistic & progressive attitude.
Organic lines, subtle Tiki references and the quiet statement “low key addicted” merge with the tried and tested Baukasten Mini to create an object that is more than just an accessory. Compact like your smartphone, uncompromising in its use – for everyone who not only sees design, but lives it.

Price composition
Why transparent pricing?
Baukasten is a part-time project where quality, sustainability, and community are consistently the focus. This affects the price, for example, because we source sustainable materials, pay our helpers and artistsfairly, and prefer to do less but better.
The total cost amounts to approximately 51EUR
With a selling price of 70 EUR, approximately 19EUR remains.
From the 19EUR we pay for discounts, marketing, product development & operational costs such as insurance, warehousing, etc.
It's practically a zero-sum game , where we don't pay ourselves a salary. That's great, because we do it part-time and out of passion !

Frequently Asked Product Questions
Why are you doing artist editions?
Without creative people, the world would be missing something essential. Many artists are torn between passion and financial security—this is where we come in: visibility, fair participation, and a stage for shared ideas. Limited drops, co-branding, real stories—value for art, community, everyday life.
Suitable for left- and right-handed rollers?
Yes, thanks to the roling base that is open on both sides, the Mini suits both.
Which filters and papers are compatible?
6mm activated carbon filters & standard long papers from all major brands. We recommend GIZEH & Hybrid.

Baukasten collab vision
Julio was born in Cuba and moved to Italy with his mother when he was six years old.
Influenced early on by movement and diversity, he developed a deep connection to creativity,craftsmanship, and expression.
Today he lives on Fuerteventura – a place of tranquility that shapes his view of aesthetics, rituals and what is essential.
Julio's creative work moves between fashion, identity and community.
As the founder of Monkey Fam – a creative collective of design, exchange and shared vision – he understands fashion as an expression of belonging and individuality at the same time.
His designs combine craftsmanship and attitude, aesthetics and meaning .
