From Past to Future, Italian Tradition
FB Bookbinding Legatoria, a young shop in the center of Padua.
After many years of training with the brand Il Gatto Fuxia, I've recently opened my own Bindery in December 2020: a real shop for my customers, above all, a lab where all the products are made exclusively by me. Every item I made is a product of hours of research and practice, and the attention to the details is total.
The techniques I use came from ancient traditions, and from the past they are talking to us, they're telling stories of hard work and respect for the materials, respect above all for my biggest love: the Book.
As an artisan I experiment most of the time, but also, all the techniques that I daily use have a millenary history: they talk about past and hard work on the thing that I love most: books, in every form.
I humbly define myself Artisan, even if this word has been quite distorted during time. Artisans are creatives, they keep the past in their artworks, and by their talent they built the bridge between the real and that thing that has not been figured yet.
Join me, let's imagine and create all together!
