SLOW was created by Roberto di Filitto and Nathalie Schneider. He is a designer, she comes from fashion. They have been working together in their graphic and design company in Tuscany, Italy, until they began to collaborate with local craftsmen, to design new objects with classical techniques and antique skills.
Iconic and poetic collections, re invented objects between nostalgy and modernity.

Writing is the starting point of our story. Books are symbols of our expression and freedom.
The Mute books collection re-interprets classical titles, playing with our memories. The Mute books mix traditional printing and binding techniques together with a fresh spirit, added by the handcoloured slice.25 symbolic titles by authors such as Jules Verne, Dante or Homer, were transformed in a colored note book to fill with your own stories.
Libri Muti (Italian for Mute Books) are inspired by the so many prohibited books around history and cultures. Nowhere in the world can everything be read.

On dit qu’il faut couler les exécrables chosesDans le puits de l’oubli et au sépulchre encloses,Et que par les escrits le mal ressuscitéInfectera les mœurs de la postérité;Mais le vice n’a point pour mère la science,Et la vertu n’est pas fille de l’ignorance.
(Théodore AgrippA d’Aubigné)
