Projects
Over the years, we have supported many clients and managed education, research, strategy and design projects in varied creative fields.
A common denominator across all of our projects, is our passion to create value through deep dedication to art, creativity, sustainability and responsible production.

Saber Fazer in Famalicão
This was a research and education project for the Municipality of Famalicão, where activities were carried out in two basic schools, the Museu da Indústria Têxtil da Bacia do Ave and Parque da Devesa. The activities were dedicated to flax, linen, silk, and natural dyeing plants, including demonstration and long-term courses with all the productive cycles.
Mulheres de Bucos
In 2011, we recorded wool processing in Bucos, Northern Portugal. This involved excellent community involvement, which resulted in our contribution to the book Mulheres de Bucos—Trabalho da Lã and in the curatorial process for the installation of a museum at Casa da Lã, which can still be visited today.
