Brenno Itani aka Bresco Baby aka Mascar Ambassador: the style of Bolo. Brenno Itani, or Brennone, is an out-of-the-ordinary person, his style is larger than life...Originally, this piece was born from an easy chat with a friend, a multimedia artist, streetpreneur and viveur bolognese of the new generation, but then a delirium of spritz, super tips and absurd stories that concern one of the coolest and most cult places in Italy, or Bologna, has changed everything. We took advantage of it, we put everything together with Wood'd, and we put together a blog interview with Brenno Itani, otherwise known as [...]
FunkRimini, Flowsane, and the animal funk approach.

A mix of unpublished and unreleased joints, you know? Here, we have [...]

Verona and its people rock, without a doubt. Verona is an amazing place, divided in two parts by the Adige river, its center enclosed by ancient walls.

We've clicked on his profile and read: 20 years old - lettres à main - Pau, France. His lettering style was personal, respectful of the past yet innovative.

Would you mind joining the Design Stories collection? It's our column dedicated to interviews and collaborations with our favorite artists". As you can see the response was positive, [...]
How's the industry really reshaping sustainability? The fact that oceans and seas are full of plastic, that pollution is changing the climate and ecosystem of our planet, it means just one thing: time to act is now! This is also confirmed by the fact that a large part of the creative, fashion and design industries have become aware of the problem and are rethinking their production and distribution chain with a single objective: to check sustainability. We already spoke about this issue in two previous blog posts. In the first one, we explained our very personal approach to the theme, while in the second one we suggested [...]
