Martin Churba: Tramando's textile philospher

One of the pleasures of working in the fashion business is encountering the kind of creative genius and unexpected hospitality that defies fashion stereotypes. Yesterday, Martin Churba, one of Argentina's most talented and well-known designers, graciously welcomed us like old friends into his 5-floor space in leafy Recoleta, where the creations of his design collective, Tramando, come to life.

Over the 2 hours that we spent with Martin and his business partner, Trixie d'Epanoux, we meandered delightfully from topic to topic to learn about the brand. From Tramando's spectacular window displays to its social impact and the brand's plans for global expansion, it was a lesson in the compelling power of a true creative force.
