One O

I love fool's experiments. I am always making them" Darwin -"That’s how One O was born, a thrilling experiment that made us, mad ladies Chiara & Irene, dedicate ourselves body and soul to this striking textile design project. Quite mad as we’re actually graphic designers working in a beautiful city in north west Italy, Turin. And this is also the place where our products draw their insipiration from, fascinating architetctures that surround our everyday life and we usually miss. That’s right, we usually miss them! So we stopped being mad people running to a place and another and started to walk slowly with our nose popped upwards: there it was, the city with it’s astonishing architectures and identities awaiting to be admired. It was thrilling and deeply inspiring. That’s how One O patterns are born and the message we want to send through our blog: cos one of the best things in life is having a place to express yourself, know the world, exchange ideas and rarities with people like you, enthusiastic ladies that go bananas when it’s all about handmade, crafty and gorgeous retrò stuff. But One O is not only about foolish and gracefully astonishing photos, it’s also conscious choice about materials and inks, it’s sustaining fair trade productions from the best Indian textile tradition, it’s getting our hands (and dresses!) dirty to perfectly silkscreened patterns, it’s italian pride on sewing excellent crafted details. Bringing to you the best. The top. The foremost. Always.
