Cobblestone pattern: bi-component rubber is hand-buttered on an elasticized synthetic fiber.

The fabric can be washed with a wet sponge or with non abrasive products.

Luca Sacchetti was born in Rome in 1962, where he lived until 1985, the year in which, after completing his classical studies and obtaining a degree in Economics, he moved first to Paris and later to Fontainebleau where he received a Masterʼs Degree in Business Administration at INSEAD. In 1998, after moving to Milan, Luca became a senior communications and art director first for fashion companies (Genny and Simint) and then for his own communication company “Star Factory” which he opened in 1993 and followed until 2004.

During this period he was directly involved in numerous advertising campaigns, fashion shows and productions for clients including Kenzo, Etro, Camper, Mtv, Spalding &Bross, Energie, Telecom and Evian. Between 1993 and 2002, he also lectured on Communication Management at “Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore” in Milan, publishing his first book, “I Beni di Prestigio: Marketing e Comunicazione”. In 2003, following his childhood passion for architecture, art and design, he took the decision to change roles and become a designer: in 2004 he presented his first art design collection, “Dreams collection” in Milan, which was later exhibited in Paris, London and San Francisco. In 2005 he presented his second collection “Eiffel” and in 2007 the first two pieces (“The Forest of Thorns” and “El Dios del Amor”) from a serie entitled “The Fairy tale of Life”.
