Description

In less than two years Carmina Campus has become a workshop that makes bags, accessories, pieces of furniture and design. It employs rejected virgin materials or gives new life and use to textiles, metals, plastic, wood… It chose not to reconvert them through industrial processes, which would imply the use of chemical agents. Every sort of material is considered, examined, handled and worked by expert Italian hands as if it were extremely rare and precious. Its original use is forgotten and a piece of garden shade, an old embroidered cushion, a zip found in a job lot, acquire a value and a dignity previously unknown to themselves. That’s how, playing around with ideas - at times inspired by the materials at hand, others wanting to make an object with specific new features - a Carmina Campus bag, lamp, bracelet, is born.
