LYFESTYLE & BEAUTY:PINKOCO

Pinkoco, more than a store
It’s an experience, it’s traveling to warm beaches and their palm trees, it’s discovering aromas coming from the Italian countryside, to the white color from Ibiza, the Nordic lightning with candles… In general, walking through its doors is a taste for all the senses, even more if you’re one of those that carry an adventurer within themselves who love escaping from Madrid for a while
Inspired by countries like Sweden and the Netherlands, and loyal to the concept “less is more”, Piero wanted to transmit (helped by decorator Luis Puerta) the same thing trough the decoration of his shop, as well as what is sold in it
A clean, minimalist, fresh, beautiful and elegant aspect; one again the elegance of less is more
What they have is never repeated. According to each season but as valuable and appreciated objects that if you don’t take one it may change to another wonderful one but not the same. Bags, for example, are unique, always creating new models, never ruled by season but by pieces
What’s behind Pinkoco
Piero Furia -from Verona, Italy- is the owner, but also the designer and creator of many of the pieces from his store. He’s Pinkoco’s maker. The name comes from one of his dogs, named Coco, and the pink color from the typography of the logo
What can you find at the shop
He gets inspired by his many trips, experiences and memories from all the countries he travels to. (For example, the soaps are inspired by Morocco)
His bags and “tote sack” are handmade and created at his atelier. New design, beautiful and, above all, with its own personality
“The life of a designer is a life of fight: fight against the ugliness”. —Massimo Vignelli
Bags: inspired by the feathers of Parisian cabarets (like the well known Lido), ideal to be combined with jeans and a t-shirt as well as with a long dress at a party
The “tote sack” are fantastic to take to the gym, the beach or for a more casual look. Beautiful and comfortable
*The bags are the most exquisite items of the store (not only for the materials but also because of the price). But there’re also amazing details more economic, but just as beautiful as the bags
Thus, capricious ones should be careful because it’s very easy to end up taking home any special object
Artisan candles with strong smells of opium, lemongrass, vanilla & coconut and jasmine
Natural body beauty products: soaps, creams, oils, with insuperable smell and texture. Inspired by the citric (orange and lemon trees) from his home town
And many decoration objects each more special
Why selling decoration, fashion and beauty products
Because Piero believes it goes all together, it makes sense to look beautiful inside and outside and what’s better than surrounding yourself by beautiful things to feel better
We stress
Pinkoco soaps are incredible! Their smell and the softness left on your hands once you use them makes it a “must” to try.
The bags are also wonderful… Have you seen them? There’s no need to say anything else
Curiosities & News
From this week on “Il bar” of Pinkoco starts from Thursday to Saturday. You’ll have the chance to enjoy a drink at the wonderful bar top located inside the store
And if you have a sweet tooth, you’ll find a wide selection of green gums to take to your mouth as well as some nice glass jars to take home
Stay tuned because a new collection of jewelry and custom jewelry designed by Piero will arrive to the shop
Advantage
For those living in northern Spain who can’t come to Madrid as much as they want to, Piero and his brand Pinkoco can be found at the hotel Marqués de Riscal. All the “Lifestyle” section of the hotel is ruled by him, so you’ll be able to get his creations
And of course…there’s an online shop
Creativity and good taste everywhere. His next idea is to make a montage to turn the shop into a peach trees garden, but it’s not only that, he has a thousand more ideas to decorate the shop in a unique way, to make it a real experience to walk inside it
That’s what we could appreciate at the shop’s opening before Easter, a beautiful and cozy party with a magical environment
Pincoko opens its doors in

Close to Plaza de las Salesas

*Although Pinkoco just opened a shop in Madrid, it’s been many more years of career. Specialized in body products, a tradition that comes along his family.
