COVER ARTIGIANALI IN LEGNO

Fabio Sannino

Fabio Sannino was born in Naples in 1985, where He lives utill the age of 26. He alternates his university studies in economics at long trips around the world, meeting new cultures and experiencing with curiosity life and himself. Fateful a trip to California, where he decide to move once graduated.
In the Unites States, Fabio finds the most exasperated application of the capitalism studied on college books, indeed, its overcoming, the evolution of Marx’s theory of capital. He bumps in the digital revolution and finds that the means of production are now available to all, that consumers have become producers and sell all over the world without the need to open a physical shop, and that “factories” have taken on new faces, new forms. Their officies are now garages or house rooms that stopped to represent alination points, transformed into places of emancipation for young creative and visionary minds, starting set of innovative start-up.
Immersed in the digital vanguard, Fabio discovers, indeed, “remember”, that he is always been fascinated by “Making things”, there is something rewarding and fulfilling about taking an idea and crafting it with your hands until it turns into something real. The new techniques of digital craftsmanship represented for Him what a pen is for a writer, the essential tool, the extension of his fingers needed to make real the design of an object, the solution to a problem, the response to a need, which otherwise would continue to live only in His own mind.
Deeply enriched by new ideas, new tools and a new consciouness, Fabio makes yet another trip back this time, to the origins, and after three years of living abroad develops his loving choice: return to his land, with a new baggage that in a small pocket contains the seed of his new project: Makera.

The brand name comes from the union of two words: Make+Era
It refers to the world community of “Makers”, the contemporary cultural movement based on innovative technologies and processes. Thanks to several open source projects Fabio had the opportunity of building a CNC and Laser machine…becoming a Maker himself.
