Electa and Acqua di Parma wanted to do this project with the aim of telling a "know-how" that always makes our country unique. Stories of men and women who have inherited from their fathers and their teachers a culture of beauty, perfection and attention to quality, which return in their projects. An Italy noble spirit for the ability to believe in their dreams and turn them into projects that have been passed down from generation to generation. Institutions and families who pursue excellence in craftsmanship and a continuation of a tradition of an ancient culture. For volume have been selected some of the most significant realities of the made in Italy. From Fai Venaria Reale, by Renzo Piano in Uto Ughi, the ballet company of La Scala represented by Roberto Bolle in Barovier & Toso is the oldest family business in the world, founded in 1295. But even Tramontin & Sons manufacturer of gondolas and the Pontificia Marinelli Foundry which manufactures bells for the Papal States. Institutions, artisans and artists united by high professionalism and passion. The photographic campaign, created by Giovanni Gastel, portrays the protagonists in the working stages to the finished product.
