Filanda n.18

At Filanda n.18 we explore the narratives woven into textile crafts. Each collection is centred around a textile tradition and infused with inspiration from modern art, architecture and personal stories. Each collection takes approximately a year to bring to life. We start by studying the historical background of a specific textile tradition.We then work with selected master artisans across geographies to design the crafts components. The journey ends in our studio in Italy where our collection is designed and assembled. We work with over 5 workshops for each collection - family-size manufacturers in northern Italy, women-run craft communities in India, lace restorers in Venice, ikat weavers in Margilan, Uzbekistan.
