On the 4th and 5th December, from 11:00 to 21:00, the community of makers and creatives will welcome the public of Manifattura Tabacchi for Family & Friends. A weekend to discover design products; brand trend setters, workshops, gastronomic proposals and music.
Manifattura’s makers open the doors of their ateliers: SUPERDUPER with its handmade hats, TodoModo with its books and indie magazines. On the occasion, the public will also be able to meet the new members who have joined the community: from the rare and unique plants by nop, to the nonconformist footwear brand CASBIA; from the urban concept store Switch, to Whispr, the knitwear brand for gender equality.
Art will also be present, with a corner dedicated to Toast Project Space, the independent art space of Manifattura Tabacchi born from an idea by the artist Stefano Giuri.
The B9 will be populated by the presence of brands selected by the makers for Manifattura’s public: clothing from Camo, jewels from Elisa Vannini and design products from Progetto Undici and Pijama.
Free workshops are also scheduled: some makers will bring their brands to life with a multidisciplinary program of workshops and laboratories to engage the community and visitors who will be able to closely observe the production process and experience the art of craftsmanship, whether buying or requesting a product.
On Saturday the 4rd of December, Todo Modo will inaugurate The Lift: the smallest bookshop in the world. 2.52 square meters obtained in an old freight elevator that will house a single publisher: Humboldt Books, a publishing house specializing in storytelling and travel experiences that gives life to interdisciplinary publishing projects by crossing geography and literature, photography and art.
During these two days the independent electronic music label Bosconi Records curates, for 24 hours, a musical selection that will alternate with the DJ console of the national scene. All this thanks to the sound system of Pequod Acoustics.
For the occasion, the Bulli & Balene bistrot will design a dedicated menu, on Saturday you can taste the delicious Japanese dishes of Bentō Fatti a Modo prepared by the chef Hiroko, and Il Giardino della Ciminiera will host the Necciaio‘s first Street Food Gluten Free in Florence.
