Welcome to a world where the languid, sun-soaked afternoons of long summer lunches come to life in a vibrant symphony of colours and culture.
Our latest collection, Life In Colour, is a captivating homage to the extraordinary influence of Spanish and Mexican culture. Renowned La La Land artist Murilo Manzini has brought this vision to life through a series of hand-painted illustrations that immerse you in the splendour of life's hues.
Each illustration is a testament to Manzini's talents, capturing the essence of Spanish and Mexican culture in a loose, expressive painterly style. The hand-painted details create a unique and immersive experience, inviting you to explore the depths of cultural richness embedded in every stroke.
The influence of Spanish and Mexican culture is present in every element of the collection. From the traditional game of chance, Loteria, to the depiction of fresh fruits and wine, Life In Colour emanates the vibrancy and elegance of these rich traditions. As you explore the illustrations, you'll find yourself immersed in the vibrant tapestry of these cultures.
La La Land's CEO, Miguel Vargas grew up in Mexico and recalled playing this game La Loteria throughout his childhood, often played during family gatherings, festivals, and other celebrations. It's sort of a 'Mexican Bingo'. When he shared it with us we fell in love with the colourful, whimsical illustrated symbols and their meanings. You'll see references to this Hispanic game throughout our Life In Colour collection, as a little nod to Miguel's cultural traditions.
In our endeavour to celebrate the rich tapestry of Mexican culture, we also wanted to pay homage to the heart of every home—the dining table. Our exploration delves into the vibrant and diverse culinary landscape of Mexico, where every dish tells a story, and each flavour is a testament to the country's cultural heritage. From the fresh colourful fruits to the intricate flavours of traditional family recipes, our collection captures the essence of Mexican culinary traditions. By shining a spotlight on the dining table as the focal point of the household, we aim to honour the communal spirit and joy that come from sharing delicious meals with loved ones.
An undeniable highlight of the collection is the tribute portrait of the iconic Frida Kahlo. The illustrations draw inspiration from her art, creating a bridge between her world and the vibrant scenes depicted in Life In Colour.
Whether you're an art enthusiast, a food lover, or someone with a passion for travel, Life In Colour offers something for everyone. The intricate details appeal to the art connoisseur, while the mouthwatering table scapes captivate the food lover's imagination.
For those yearning for a cultural journey, our Life In Colour collection is your passport to a world of beauty, vibrancy, and whimsical delight.
