Marsèll

Marsèll expresses a solid yet tactile take on design.

Muted colors, meticulous finishes, a dash of the unexpected give a visionary twist to utilitarianism. Form, thereafter, follows function, not predictably so. A seamless merging of form, colour and texture characterizes Marsèll’s approach to shoemaking. Sturdy, classic shapes undergo a process of subtle distortion: a detail is overblown gaining visual prominence, or it is totally erased; heels get a sculptural shape; meticulous finishing adds a dash of polish where you’d least expect it; a slice, or a hole, turn into design statements. Whilst still keeping their status of useful objects, shoes, as well as bags, gain another layer of meaning, due to a rearranged balance of all the components. The effect is subdued; assertively quiet, if you prefer.

Marsèll coveys modern classicism with an angle and an organic feel. It is a mix of innovation and tradition. Production is carried out entirely in Italy. Craft, manual work, quality of the materials and artisanality are paramount.
