Lita’s Mantova Diary

Jul 07 2010

I just returned from the flagship offices of our Masters Workshop partners Edizioni Corraini located in the breathtaking city of Montova, an hour or so from Venice. Its architecture is a combination of Medieval and Renaissance styles. And in 2005, it was voted most livable city in Italy by a survey taken by Legambiente (an ecologist movement of Italy).

So, I’m happy to announce that for our 2011 season, the SVA Masters Workshop will spend quality time here with the Corraini’s (below), leading a day-long laboratory on books and book-making. Print is not dead in Montova.

Here are some photos of the city and the Corraini offices and showroom. They speak for themselves.
