Red has the impetus and dignity of an intrepid heart (Man Ray) When, every year on February 14, Valentine's Day knocks punctually on our door, everything around us has already taken on total red colors for days; from flowers to cards, from chocolates to hearts, from clothing to any type of gadget. Just think that in [...]
ECCO LA STORIA DELLA NOSTRA CAMPAGNA PUBBLICITARIA SUL LOVEJOY RING Andrea, Claudia, Marco e naturalmente la sottoscritta abbiamo deciso di fotografare ragazze di origini etniche non italiane, nate all’Elba o che semplicemente ci vivono. Con indosso l’anello, avrebbero dovuto assumere la tipica posizione di chi esige il silenzio con il dito sul naso. Un gesto [...]
Silicone is indisputably a sustainable alternative to plastic. Eco-friendly: silicone, unlike plastic which is a derivative of petroleum, is a derivative of silicon and due to its composition is considered part of the rubber family. Silica is one of the most widespread natural resources on earth and is absolutely non-polluting. It has been used for [...]
DAMPAÌ, dal 2017, ha messo a disposizione la propria vetrina nel DAMPAÌ STORE di Portoferraio all'isola d'Elba, ad artisti che hanno avuto qualcosa da raccontare.

But above all, it is a system developed in the 1950s to classify the colors and translate those printed in CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow and [...]
Blu è il colore della quantità. Se racchiudi un po' di cielo in una scatola, o se metti un po’ di oceano in un bicchiere, perderanno entrambi il loro colore. Il blu è rimasto lassù, da qualche parte, lontano. Quando puoi fare quello che devi fare, ti senti libero. E lo sei. Ma non hai [...]
A DESIGNER BAG IS FOREVER I like to think that one of my bags can be worn by anyone, following the idea of "democratic design" that made IKEA great. When DAMPAÌ was first founded in 2010, there were only big name bags with three zero prices and cheap bags on the market. The latter were [...]
