Studio Azurra is inspired by Earth.
Studio Azurra is a natural dye and color exploration project focused the connection between color, place, & natural fibers.
Based out of Seattle, Studio Azurra hosts events and workshops focused on creating color from the Earth in community, and designing and creating one of a kind pieces.
Led by Lucia Biondo
My name is Lucia.
From a young age, I had a desire to do good; to find a way to be better for the sake of our planet. I have found my path at the intersection of beauty and creation – between craft and nature. And I know who led me here.
I was blessed enough to have a great-grandmother who taught me sewing and the beauty you can create with your own hands, not to mention the hours she would spend cooking meals at high holidays. My Irish grandmother on my father’s side taught me to cradle and cherish the small moments in life. Her deepest pleasure was to sit in a chair in the sun – feel the wind on her face and to listen to the birds.
I have taught natural dye classes through Studio Azurra, and am currently exploring my ancestral heritage through connection with plants and place, diving into folk traditions, herbalism, and natural dyes. I write about this journey on my Substack.
