INDUSTRIAL ARCHEOLOGY: STORIES OF A TEXTILE CITY

Chapter I –The Anonima Calamai’s wonderful architecture

We have chosen to introduce our products by describing the fabric of the city: its historic factories, its far-seeing and determined entrepreneurs, the workers who saw all their dreams come true. A heritage made up of knowledge and ideas, but also of the emotions that made us what we are today. A journey which we very much enjoyed and which we hope you will find as exciting as we did. Our guide is Giuseppe Guanci, an artist, architect and connoisseur of Prato’s industrial archeology.
