The Project
Design for Slow Tourism
Relight Venice's products and workshops are born to raise greater awareness about our consumption habits while traveling, combining unique design and craftsmanship to turn each product into an authentic and sustainable experience.
From waste to value
We believe that a more sustainable future is both possible and necessary, often starting with small actions, like reusing what already exists. We work with discarded materials, such as leftover wood from Venetian oars for the bases of our Candles, or recycled plexiglass for our Sunset Venice Earrings. Each piece is created with the goal of reducing waste and having a positive impact on the environment, while maintaining high quality.
Creating opportunities
Since 2022 we have been collaborating with the Women's Prison in Venice and the social cooperative Rio Terà dei Pensieri: some of our Candles and Soaps are made together with the inmates and, at the end of their detention time, we welcome them in our workshop to support their reintegration into society. In Morocco, we work with local artisans, friends that Michela has met over the years, learning traditional techniques from them. Each product is part of a change that we hope to make ever greater.
Narrative objects
Venice is a city rich in culture, traditions, and fragility, and our desire is to pass down these stories through our products. We create objects that help keep the identity of this special place alive, countering the trend of making every city the same. Each piece we make is an opportunity to tell something: a story, a reflection, a challenge.
Imperfections make us unique
Each RV product is handcrafted with passion and dedication, prioritizing quality above all. However, sometimes small imperfections may emerge that, instead of being seen as flaws, represent the beauty of craftsmanship. Every detail makes each piece unique, with a personality that no artificial perfection can offer. For us, it is in these details that the true quality of a product resides.
