sobe

SoBe is a collection of limited edition sustainable trays designed by Valentina Fontana Castiglioni and inspired by colours and deco' shapes of Miami, the city that had launched her into the world of design and where she had moved the first steps of her working career.
4 variants decorated with the most representative Miami's iconography, all made out of 100% recyclable aluminum, of course.

PALMSPalms, sun, music and colours. And a sensational feeling of freedom.
Miami can be described this way to those who have not yet been lucky enough to visit it. 
MARTINMain protagonists of both old postcards and nowadays socials, the Miami decò hotels are among the most iconic and representative symbols of South Beach.
Built in the Thirties, they are still considered a kind of Miami signature.
FLAMINGOFlamingos, pool parties and Latin music are among the undisputed symbols of this colourful city. Pink flamingos perfectly depict Miami Beach identity in pendant with the decò buildings’ pastel colours of this never sleeping city.
LIFEGUARDThe colourful lifeguard towers are the undisputed landmark of Miami Beach’s beaches along the ocean; a place where opposites meet, like the people of the night dancing Latin American music and the early-morning joggers who prefer a healthy lifestyle.

The SoBe by VFC collection trays are tribute by Valentina Fontana Castiglioni to the city where she had moved after graduation for her first job among the Downtown skyscrapers. The collection of four trays dedicated to South Beach is born within the project SoBe by VFC, in collaboration with the children's fashion brand Bianca&Noé for which Valentina has designed a collection of beach pajamas MiniMe.
Everything in the name of sustainability: as it works for the recyclable aluminium of altreforme, so it goes for the organic fabrics of Bianca&Noé: design and fashion go green together!
