Energy

Woodly only uses certificated, zero impact, renewable energy. Woodly venue is set in a 1600 edifice we renovated following the principles of energy conservation, so to achieve a high passive efficiency and reduce consumptions to minimum. The workshop is heated burning the waste products in an extremely high efficiency “rocket stove”.

Circular Design

A reflection: are we sure that to be ecological and environment-friend an industrial product needs to be easily recyclable? No, we think that a truly ecological product, whether it is a table, a cot, a crib or a lamp, is not the one designed to be easily recycled, but the one made to (long) last, to grow old and maybe to improve in time.

Were we work

Woodly sits on the hills around Parma, in a very tiny hamlet (Faviano Superiore), far from every noise or contamination. We firmly believe that ecology and beauty must be spawned in an equally beautiful and uncontaminated environment.

The new Woodly venue

  /     /   By Laura

By the end of the summer, in the morning, if you look carefully towards south and the Appennino, you can see from your room window groups of roe-deers grazing in the fields behind the house. We urban creatures are the least susceptible to realize that nature around us is more alive than ever. Our venue, and home, is an ancient stone house built on five levels, to which, following the hill slope, portions have been added in the centuries, including the short sixteenth-century turret that rises over the hamlet, from which you can enjoy a charming view all the way down to the Monte Cimone. Beyond the courtyard there are the workshop, the offices and the stockroom, spaces we obtained restructuring the interior of the old cattle shed and the barn, and leaving the outside walls entirely covered with luxuriant creeping roses and jasmines.
