Slow Factory was founded to remind people to slow down and remember the (really) big picture.

Slow Factory is a satellite boutique floating in space. Its esthetic is taken from the open-source movement. Founded on August 5, 2012 – the day that the Curiosity rover landed on Mars - we use NASA’s open data images of the Earth and of space, taken by satellites and telescopes. We re-purpose and re-sample in order to create new meaning. We also collaborate with various artists such as James Victore, an award-winning visual artist whose work is exhibited in MoMa.

By combining the skies above with collaborators whose inspiration is firmly rooted here on earth, Slow Factory offers the discerning consumer a luxurious symbol of both the sky above and the reality below, a reminder of the constant beauty of our world, and of our connection to it. We are the new luxury: the timeless and the temporary built into sustainable essentials that are built to last, crafted in Italy and New York.
Slow Factory products are part of the slow fashion movement, because quality trumps quantity.

Slow Factory has been featured on various trend-watching sites such as Fubiz, Fastcodesign.com, and many more, and is sold at the MoMa Store, the Museum of Contemporary Arts in Chicago (as an exclusive for the David Bowie exhibition), at the Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian, and in most museums across North America.
We create timeless pieces with the world in mind.
