A collection of notebooks playing with classical titles and a handcolour edge,

An olfactory book with an organic fragrance to give a scent to words,

A subtil artwork of oxidation on mirrors,

Slow objects are notes of the memory that survive in our daily lives.

The collection is designed by Roberto di Filitto and Nathalie Schneider. They collaborates with local craftsmen in tuscany, , to design new objects with classical

techniques and antique skills.

Writing is the starting point of our story. Books are symbols of our expression and freedom.

The Mute books collection re-interprets classical titles, playing with our memories. The Mute books mix traditional printing and binding techniques together with a fresh spirit, added by the handcoloured slice.31 symbolic titles by authors such as Jules Verne, Dante or Homer, were transformed in a colored note book to fill with your own stories.

Each cover is an invitation to discover an author - or read gain the book.

Libri Muti (Italian for Mute Books) are inspired by the so many prohibited books around history and cultures.

SLOW was created by Roberto di Filitto and Nathalie Schneider. He is a designer, she comes from fashion. They have been working together in their graphic and design company in

Tuscany, Italy, until they began to collaborate with local craftsmen, to design new objects with classical techniques and antique skills.

Our mirrors are handmade in Tuscany, by art craftsmen, using ancient and traditional techniques (glaziers of cathedrals). Our mirrors are not industrial: they are worked from glass plate, Then baked in high temperature

ovens.

Our notebooks and paper products use Acid free certified raw materials - The EU Ecolabel FI / 11/002 - ISO 9001-ISO 14001-ISO 50001- OHSAS 18001-FSC® CoC, license code FSC® C015932 - PEFC ™ CoC, license

code PEFC / 02-31-86 Renewable fiber - Recyclable paper. They are realized in a small artisanal unit in Tuscany and hand coloured at the edge. Much of the process is manual.

The leather we use comes from France, vegeatble tanning is done in Italy, we only use vegetable dye, leather products are made and sewn entirely by hand.

The metal pieces that decorate our leathers are made by a Florentine craftsman, one by one. Each piece is unique.
