Inspirations
Life, nature, and the elements surrounding us are perpetual wellsprings of inspiration. To create, recycle, or innovate, one must possess the ability to keenly observe them, just like Márcia de Carvalho, the visionary founder of “Chaussettes Orphelines” (Orphan Socks), a business that ingeniously recycles socks to craft glamorous and eco-friendly fashion pieces. It’s not only possible, but it’s also sustainable, and we whole heartedly embrace this remarkable initiative!
Other ingenious creations, drawing inspiration from nature, have become timeless classics. Take, for instance, the enchanting “Bubble” and “Galet” sofas, or the elegantly practical “Tree” coat rack. Bordallo Pinheiro, a company established in the 19th century by the illustrious Lusitanian artist, thinker, and entrepreneur, Raphael Bordallo Pinheiro (1846-1905), graces us with exquisite ceramic tableware and decorative masterpieces inspired by the wonders of plants and animals. Stepping into their world is like embarking on a dreamlike journey, fully immersed in the authenticity of nature itself.
Innovation also blossoms when we venture beyond our comfort zones – fearlessly embracing change and daring to explore novel colors and materials. Is adorning a green bag with pink spots a daring choice? While the striking leaves of a tree may lead the way, breaking away from conventional dress codes is not always an easy decision.

Gone are the days when conventional good taste dictated that the color of your shoes must precisely match your handbag. Thankfully, those restrictions are long behind us, and this newfound freedom is truly a blessing for all!
At SoWoit, we wholeheartedly encourage the impulsive spark within you – the one that paves the path to increased self-confidence, allowing you to radiate positive energy and trust in yourself. Are you ready to embark on a personal quest to discover the colors and materials that resonate with your true essence? Our enthusiastic team stands ready to accompany you on this thrilling journey.
All the best,
