Production Technology
By sourcing sheep's wool from the region, agriculture and local farmers and shepherds are supported. Fair prices for the shepherds themselves and for our partner manufactures are paid in order to support fair working conditions.
Design Challenge
The name of our Slow Wool Collection as well as our concept store and studio comes from slow living. Behind this term there is a lifestyle that consciously focuses on slowness and deceleration - in our daily lives, in our consumption and in our homes.
Research
Fair prices for the shepherds themselves and for our partner manufactures are paid in order to support fair working conditions.
Inspiration
The startup Slowli Concept was founded in Italy in 2020. Since then, it produces furniture and accessories like the Slow Wool Collection in collaboration with local manufactories, social workshops and independent artists and designers. With every one of these interior pieces made in real handwork from local raw materials, it aims to bring conscious deceleration and mindfulness into a home.
Project Duration
Bolzano, Italy
2021
Operation Flow
To live more consciously and more slowly, to reflect on the simple things... that's is the startup's philosophy of slow living. This new spirit has been developing for a number of years, but especially in these days and age it develops further and further. So by today, it has also arrived in the interior sector. And Slow Wool Collection - a concept for mindfulness, deceleration and sustainability in our homes - is based precisely on this philosophy of life.
