About Orizzonte 02 Kortveske
Kortvesken har et vakkert design som viser frem det unike og miljøvennlige fiskeskinnmaterialet. Konseptet med å bære naturen med deg er elegant skildret gjennom bruk av fiskeskinn for å representere havbølgene og gradientskinn for å reflektere himmelens skiftende farger. Den tradisjonelle japanske belgproduksjonsteknikken til Fu-kin-machi brukes for å lage en elegant og lett innsettbar kortveske. Bruk av kassert fiskeskinn som fiskeskinn er en innovativ og bærekraftig tilnærming som bidrar til å redusere miljøavfall.

- Unique Properties
- The concept is "Carry the scenery with you". The fish leather represents "the waves of the sea", while the gradient leather represents "the changing colours of the sky". The colour variations are named "L'ora blu (Blue Hour)" and "Il notturno (Night Scene)", with the sea and sky of each hour expressed in fish leather and gradient leather.

- W110×H75×D15mm

- Production Technology
- Fish leather made from discarded fish skin and gradient leather dyed in layers of colour one by one using dyes. In addition, the edges are beautifully finished with high strength by Leather Edge Creaser.
- Design Challenge
- After continually searching for a way to achieve a beautiful gradation and repeatedly making samples, we were finally able to create a gradation leather that we were satisfied with.
- Research
- By making effective use of fish skin as fish leather, which would otherwise have been thrown away, the company believes it is possible to reduce the burden on the environment. In addition, the design not only uses fish leather, but also makes use of the fish scale pattern.
- Inspiration
- When I was fishing before dawn and saw the blue hour landscape, I noticed that the scale pattern on the fish leather resembled ocean waves and came up with the idea of a leather item that represents the sea with fish leather and the sky with gradient leather.
- Project Duration
- The project started in November 2021. Samples are completed in December 2022, with pre-orders starting in February 2023.
- Operation Flow
- Using the traditional Japanese bellows manufacturing technique of "Fu-kin-machi," we have created a thin, easy-to-insert business card case.
