Puglia has everything. Amazing food, stunning olive fields, inspiring cities, and one of our favorite things: a dreamy coast. I’ve spent long summers exploring Puglia’s quaint towns and villages, sleeping in its traditional masserie, and working with local artisans to design quality linens and woven bags to bring the slow lifestyle into your home and wardrobe.

Although Matera is technically part of the Basilicata region and not Puglia, it’s right on the border and it’s a place you can’t miss. One of the oldest inhabited cities in the world, Matera has a mountainous landscape filled with cave dwellings that will take your breath away.
