The Maltese islands boast a wealth of identity, evident to the eye in how we act and we interact and, to an extent, how we present ourselves both socially and visually. It would be fair to state that this abundance of distinction may be rooted in a strong sense of tradition, pride and patriotism.
We are based in Malta, and over the past years, we have been studying forms and visual elements that define the Maltese identity, culture & aesthetic.
It all started with a simple concept – that of intertwining fresh design with high-quality, Maltese-inspired prints.
This Collaboration gives us the opportunity to further our exploration of the Maltese identity through Maltatype’s extensive documentation of local Typography.
One thing we could definitely agree with Maltatype is the lack of preservation of such important features that makes up the Maltese aesthetic. With this premise, we wanted to identify such local heritage and how it can be embraced, cultivated and celebrated in modern times.
We love nothing more than seeing you flex your creative muscles by picking the perfect spots for our Te fit-Tazza illustrations. We’ve seen the respect you show art pieces and find it glorious. Potted plants compliment artworks perfectly, and when we see traditional features of a Maltese home our heart melts. Alternatively, a traditional piece fits a modern home well, as it shows the contrasts which are often huge talking points within society. We are keen to see more of our work in your homes, so remember to tag us in your Instagram posts, and we might even share your beautiful space with our followers.
Have you visited our retail space in Sliema? We always have both unframed and framed prints in stock and ready to take home. Also check out our sister brand Souvenirs That Don’t Suck whilst you are at it!
We’ve been working for over a year to find another space for both our brands. The idea is a new retail shop for Souvenirs That Don’t Suck and a multifunctional creative space for Te fit-Tazza.
In 2018 we announced that Te fit-Tazza has acquired Souvenirs That Don’t Suck in Malta. Souvenirs That Don’t Suck is a brand aimed at creating modern and playful Malta- themed gifts, in an effort to fight the worldwide epidemic of bad souvenirs. T-shirts, tote bags, mugs and more.
Whilst both brands remain distinct and true to their nature, this exciting adventure unlocked new potential for both brands to provide a vast array of inspirational and beautifully-designed products.
