About Slow Wool Collection Wollen Deken, Wollen Kussen
De Slow Wool-collectie is een set dekens en kussens voor thuis. Er wordt uitsluitend natuurlijke schapenwol van Zuid-Tiroolse herders gebruikt. De wol wordt in kleine lokale manufacturen verwerkt tot dekens en kussens. Er worden standaardmaten aangeboden, maar de stukken kunnen ook op maat worden gemaakt. De verpakking is volledig recyclebaar en dozen uit de winkel worden hergebruikt voor verzending. Er worden eerlijke prijzen betaald aan de herders en aan de partnermanufacturen. Het ontwerp is tijdloos en minimalistisch en ondersteunt een langzamere en bewustere manier van leven.

- 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.
