ROMA - STUDIO 6

STUDIO ROMA - DESIGN INFLUENCE OF ANCIENT MYTH
Taking influence from the myth of Arachne...Arachne, a young girl from Lydia so skilled at the art of weaving she challenged Minerva, the goddess of arts and crafts, to a weave off. Arachne was soon so overwhelmed by the goddesses’s wrath that she attempted to hang herself. Feeling pity for the girl, Minerva spared her life and transformed her into a spider...to forever perfect her craft by weaving the thread of life

CONCEPT : INFILARE (THREAD)
Craftsmanship is highlighted by revealing the process of vintage reupholstering and furniture design...allowing the viewer to not only be part of the design process..but view the process as it takes place. finished pieces are placed on display to view and purchase. In addition to custom furniture design and repair, customers can not only select vintage fabrics for pieces, but buy by the yard as well. bare bones - covered with fabric - gives new life.
