Água de Prata
João Bruno Videira, a Science Communication graduate, created Água de Prata in 2006. With a job in the city, João dropped everything to be a self-taught craftsman and designer and moved to Graça do Divor, a small village between Arraiolos and Évora, in Alentejo, Portugal.
Like the TASA project I wrote about here, Água de Prata’s main goal is to combine traditional crafts techniques with contemporary design and needs. Arraiolos wool is the main material and its use is constantly reinvented with each new piece, making it unique and unrepeatable.
