Slow Works

We believe in having control of our own time

We live in a culture of acceleration with a constant race to reach infinite goals on a never ending list of things to do faster. However, we strive to do the opposite as we believe in slowing down to sense and understand our surroundings better. We design fewer things that last longer

We take our time creating simple designs in collaboration with our local producers and craftsmen, with full attention to detail. We quilt, stitch, print and hand dye most of the fabrics we use, in our studio or in our own back yard. This gives each design a unique look, color and finish. Without compromising our ideals, we put in whatever time it takes. We have chosen to slow down
