INSPIRATION

SOOTHE – RADICAL – ANDREA BRANZIHERETICAL DESIGN – PRIMITIVES – BACK TO THE ORIGIN

RITUAL – ESSENTIALISM – MEDITATION – TIBET

In a t ime when al l seems passively automated in a chaot ic and fast paced world,a touch of content ious nostalgia desire to begin al l over again in a

growing interest in spir i tual i ty and expression of the r i tuals wi tha “pr imit ive ” approach of a contemporary taste.

A calm and meditat ive mood ref lect the essent ia l i ty of a “soothing design ” where“heret ical ” is the approach to a new and di fferent way of seeing and thinking a

design that gives shape to our dai ly l i fe in a more int imate and emot ional journey

Our SS16 Man moves in a moral enquiry and a search of equi l ibr ium and meaning,showing a quirky mannerism and an introspect ive personal i ty.
