Our Story.

 

Hola. We are Lucy and Guy. A couple of creatives that left the hurried pace of the city to live the slow life in a rural village on the Mediterranean coast of Spain. Years spent living in various cities from London, Vancouver, Singapore and Bratislava made us realize that we were missing an essential part of ourselves. In these incredible cities that offer you everything and more, our biggest yearning was for simplicity. Our dream was to slow life down. To be close to nature and find the time to do the things that make us feel truly alive. Making, cooking, creating, biking, swimming in the sea. We live in an old finca that we are slowly restoring. Winters here mean that in the evenings we fill the wood burning stove with chunks of olive tree wood as it is our only source of heating. We light candles, play vintage jazz and bundle up under warm wool sweaters.

Summers here mean days spent outside. Biking down to the sea for a mid afternoon dip in the clear waters. During the day we walk through the surrounding vineyards to the center of the village where we have a creative studio space. We use the studio for meetings, photoshoots, creative research as well as an art and ceramic studio. Our village of Benitachell is filled with wonderful people who have welcomed us to share the richness of Spanish culture. Weekends here mean visiting the local rastro markets to peruse rustic antiques and discover fresh ingredients to cook with. Long lunches, sunny days, and the ability to take in all moments slowly, influence how we work on every client brief. Whether the project is local or thousands of miles away. Working with inspiring clients across the world from here makes us feel connected.
