Grazie infinite @uldericomicara @nataschademner per l’ospitalità divina e piena di affetto sempre.

What I mean by conscious design and business devel What I mean by conscious design and business development.. Earlier this week I revisited local wool project, @llanatura. They have been working hard for years figuring out how to make use of this ultimate renewable resource, while creating cottage industry in Mallorca. I’ve been reflecting on how to participate these last months, and am getting closer with a few design ideas. Aiming to make some lovely things for the holidays. Pla atelier and shop is another visit I made. Irene Peukes’ work is a concentration of many of my favorite qualities- inventive yet traditional hand loom weaving and shoe design, natural dyeing, independent entrepreneurial bravura, it’s all here… We feel the seeds of collaboration germinating… let’s see what happens. @pla.original
Es Trenc, and it’s otherworldly mounds of salt, Es Trenc, and it’s otherworldly mounds of salt, are among the best of Mallorca’s local offerings in my opinion. And the most photogenic! In the coming months and seasons, I’ll be jumping into some work with local artisan projects. Llanatura and its sheep-to-product vertical wool business is among them. A few posts on wool itself are coming soon, both highlighting it’s properties as a masterful renewable material and it’s sorry fate in last decades being burned due to the high cost of processing. Working with small, nimble, independent enterprises is one good answer to the global crisis we face in earth’s sustainability. Thoughtfully designed, carefully made items, principally by hand in small batches - these are the new essentials, a steadily growing market sector, and to me the biggest luxury. Giving natural materials precedence, opening the way for more individual creative agency and the opportunity to find personal relevance through work, creating sustainable, if not zillionaire-producing livelihoods for many who wish to step into independent entrepreneurialism – this is where it’s at. More on this subject soon as well, as I prepare both in-person programs and online courses to galvanize this movement - sustainable, small, global local, natural, handmade !
Hot Summer 2022. Silver streak, bohemian life, op Hot Summer 2022. Silver streak, bohemian life, open heart. All roads lead to slow design and living, global local enterprise, female entrepreneurship, mentorship and activism… Living the change. Plus a load of new favorite places, flavors, colors, expressions, friends and colleagues - Balearic blessings 🙌☀️🌕
Missions accomplished in June. One of my favorite Missions accomplished in June. One of my favorite new arms of work is a combination of mentoring and teaching- built on the foundation of slow design, heritage textiles, and global fine artisan craft. Throw a lifetime of independent entrepreneurialism and the great luck of living like a local everywhere, and there’s a lot to share! Earlier this month I hosted a Design and Culture Program I designed for a gifted Parsons student and fellow NY’er. Oh the satisfaction of seeing someone get switched on and excited about - everything. ☀️A local, circular design, wool project ☀️Traditional basket weaving with pro’s ☀️Sustainability and career path counseling ☀️Artist identity workshops ☀️Unabashed sunsets ☀️Cliff top acoustic concerts ☀️Meeting makers ☀️Making skirts from scratch ☀️Simple, Mediterranean, home cooked meals ☀️Long strolls through ancient towns ☀️A bunch of gelato Ellen, anything I’m missing?
