Dried by the Tuscan Sun

FORMULATED is the Tortuga Forma journal about the rituals we create around the home, the objects that bring us joy, and the stories behind how things are made.

We return to a slower way of living, letting the sun and the wind dry our laundry. If we allow it to, nature does its work while we listen to the breeze and watch it breathe through the landscape. Travel to Tuscany through a short film about slowing down and giving in. 

“So enchanted with you were the wind and the rain that they whispered the sound of your wonderful name.” - Nancy Tillman

  3. Making a Pattern with Molly Fitzpatrick

    Molly Fitzpatrick is the founder of DITTOHOUSE and a dear collaborator who has brought TF’s very first textile collection to life. From afar, we were drawn to her vibrating prints, her unflinching use of color, and her deep reverence for textile history.
