The design of the Raices line emerges from the need to reuse thousands of oval cuts of new leather from a safety boot factory, discarded daily for having no utility. To reuse them, the designer focused on the search for techniques that would allow to find their greatest beauty and functionality, finding inspiration in the wings of birds, the scaled, staggered and overlapping. In order to expand the color palette, it was also decided to reuse leathers from other companies.

I am in love with design in all its ways. I like objects madly, I believe above all in their history. I believe in beauty and functionality and that it is not necessary to buy raw materials for them to have value. I think that as designers, it is our duty to build networks where we can design new things through the revaluation of the remaining raw material of others and in the same way work revaluing the trades, generating work in the region. I believe in design as a powerful weapon of education and awareness.

To understand the way Maison Domecq works, it is necessary to think of it as one of the links in a great project: the chain of sustainability, where the raw material is never lost, but transformed into new fashion jewelry for the market. Sustainable design is considered fundamental. Firstly because it will allow future generations to know and enjoy the same planet. In addition, it is a guarantee that each piece is unique and has its own history. Each and every piece of jewelry is the result of Argentine craftsmanship combined with the use of new certified materials, whether recycled, reused or discarded. The material used is sustainable and traceable to fulfill the desire to be environmentally friendly. Experimentation is at the heart of the design. The discovery of new methods and new textures develops a relationship in which to read the latent messages hidden in this noble material. Revealing the qualities and strengths, playing with its limits, are the genuine expression that brings authenticity and style to each of the works. We believe that style is at the crossroads of many contrasts and dualities. Sensitivity and courage, femininity and strength. With one foot in the past and one in the future, the modern retro style. We represent determined women who believe that sustainability is crucial, and through our work we aim to change the world and its image. Maison Domecq places femininity at the center of its creation through the use of textures, shapes and colors.
