Products & services

Laser
The laser is a tool that allows us to experiment with various techniques and designs, it helps us in prototyping in the initial phase of projects and allows us to create custom projects in limited quantities. The results that are obtained thanks to the use of laser in the creation of invitations, covers, boxes, packaging, cards, business cards, etc. are of the highest quality and precision. Laser cutting and marking are always the right choice for guaranteed results.

Invitations
Creating complex objects with a sophisticated design while maintaining a high quality standard has always been our goal, this is how many invitations have taken shape, remaining over time as a reminder of a unique moment. Today we are a reference for the Fashion world and for all those who want to stand out.

Special Project for Louis XIII
This two-fold menu is crafted from a premium 250gsm Fedrigoni Tintoretto Neve paper, renowned for its elegant and natural texture. The design comes to life through a combination of hot foil stamping and raised embossing, followed by a 3D blind embossing to add depth and sophistication. In response to the client's specifications, we decided to incorporate two small holding holes at the top and bottom of the two-panel card, complemented by a sleek black elastic band with a black nickel clasp.

45 Degree Cut Packaging
A secret opening concealed within the words “Welcome to DIOR”, as an aesthetic expression of a product that exclusively uses the language of paper. The structure embraces the content, wrapping it with singular engraved patterns, perfectly aligned across the various surfaces. Hot stamping and digital printing ensure an elegant chromatic uniformity, achieved through refined design of a product manually crafted and composed.

Carte de voeux YSL
"Best Wishes Yves Saint Laurent 2024" is a wish for refinement and elegance, the result of meticulous aesthetic research expressed through craftsmanship and attention to detail. The perfect synergy between hot printing and embossing create a play of contrasts between fullness and emptiness, enhancing the pearlescent components of the paper. A tribute to the beauty of simplicity.

Couvette
Meticulously crafted for Brioni, this exclusive fabric sample holder is a synthesys of elegance and functionality. The image captures only a glimpse of a complete set, consisting of six exquisite binders, each organized into elegant couvettes that hold different fabric variations. The internal structure of each binder is crafted with a 2mm G/G cardboard core, enveloped in the exceptional Seveso Canvas Extra R 2377, an outstanding material that guarantees both scratch resistance and enviable durability. Each surface is adorned with hot-stamped Kurz Luxoro Colorit Matte Black foil, lending a sophisticated and flawless appearance. The couvettes are perfected with satin ribbons, making the lifting and extraction of the color cards effortless.

Artic Visions
Arctic Visions is more than a collection; it’s a journey that evokes emotion and invites reflection on the balance that is now crumbling, between man and the environment. The idea behind the packaging, entirely crafted with the v-groove cut plotter, highlighting the continuity between the photographs contained inside and the outside of the pack, was made possible thanks to the common factor of the frozen landscape: The continuous fractures of the arctic and the dominant white. The 9 photographs are all silver pantone printed and the special +1 photograph is laser engraved on a Fedrigoni’s Sirio Pearl Platinum paper with a stunning result.

Allineamenti
ALLINEAMENTI arises from an ongoing exploration aimed at uncovering new aesthetic solutions that seamlessly blend with time-honored artistic techniques, transforming paper into an elegant expression of beauty, enriching its essence and depth. The tangible meets the intangible, clean geometric lines intertwine with the softness of flowing shapes, and perfection embraces the imperfection, creating a fascinating dialogue of contrasts. The sophisticated craftsmanship, combined with the refined quality of the paper, leads to an unparalleled sensory experience that awakens both sight and touch. ALLINEAMENTI not only embodies our savoir-faire, but also serves as an inspiring journey for those immersed in the world of luxury, art, and creativity, inviting a unique expression of individuality.

Visionidi
A visionary project by biancamaria and marionanni, Visionidi explores the boundless creative potential of paper. Designed for walls, doors, and panels, this modular system combines the elegance of Fedrigoni paper with refined artisanal techniques, in a work that welcomes contrast and transforms it into harmony by exploring the sensory richness of paper. The weave, a delicately abstract design, comes to life through carvings, transparencies and overlapping silhouettes, creating a play of light and shadow that offers new perspectives to the viewer. The elliptical form bridges separation and continuity, turning an object created for division into a vision, an opportunity for a new visual union within the architectural space until it becomes a work of art. The floor itself becomes a dynamic play of shadows and transparencies, deepening the immersive experience. Through laser cutting, hot stamping, embossing, and other refined finishes, Visionidi transforms paper into a living, evolving work, the protagonist of the dialogue between full and empty, between light and shadow.
