STORY:
Vanessa was born May 31st 1969 in Rome, with a twin sister named Nicoletta.
The two sisters didn't get along well at all, so Vanessa tried to isolate herself from the rest of the world when she was unhappy. She also had an imaginative friend named Lucy, who she played with all the time.
Vanessa starts swimming at the age of 6, she loves it but after 3 years she's tired of it and decides to quit.
Every weekend Vanessaused to go at grandma's house to cook with her a lot of desserts.
Every sunday with her aunt Mariella, Vanessa used to go to church where she sings in the choir.
When Vanessa becomes a teenager she starts helping out at her dad's restaurant but she keeps studying as well. One of her biggest interest is playing piano, infact she starts taking lessons.
As an adult, Vanessa moves out of her parents' house and goes to Milan to live with her fiance Massimiliano and her cat pet Ringo. Vanessa works as a music teacher so she can still enjoy music.

On our poster we mapped the story of our toy: Berenice. It's a stuffed animal made by Trudi company. We received all the info directly from the marketing office and through the internet website "www.trudi.it".
Berenice was designed in Italy and produced in China where all the the materials come from too (plastic, polyester and cotton). From Hong Kong the products are shipped through airplane to the principal distributors in Europe: Italy, Germany, Spain and France. In Italy you can find the stuffed animal in stores like "Carrefour", Milan.
This toy belonged to one of us and it was a Xmas present, after using it too much it broke and was thrown away.

Biò Fireplace, i bio caminetti da installare senza canna fumaria

pubblicato da Giulia in: Made in Italy Eco design Aziende Arredamento

Vi piacciono i caminetti ma non potete installarne uno a casa vostra? Biò Fireplace, la nuova linea tutta italiana di biocaminetti, potrebbe permettervi di togliervi lo sfizio.

I quattordici modelli del catalogo Biò, infatti, funzionano anche in assenza di canna fumaria: la fiamma viene alimentata grazie all’utilizzo di un combustibile biologico, proveniente dalla fermentazione di distillazione di sostanze vegetali, in primis gli scarti dell’industria alimentare.

Senza fumo né cenere, dunque, ma anche senza la necessità di stoccare la legna, i caminetti di Biò possono essere inseriti sia in modalità freestanding che a parete o a incasso. Linee contemporanee per il design, a cui ha partecipato con la progettazione di tre modelli anche il designer Matteo Ragni.
