ABOUT
MATTEO
Matthew Lenoci founded Matteo in 1996 to create simple sheets from the most luxurious textiles in the world.
We weave with the leading fabric mills in Italy where the collective wisdom of centuries is combined with cutting-edge technology.
We sew right here in Los Angeles in a large workshop adjacent to our design studio. The constant circulation between design & production yields a fertile creative environment and unparalleled quality control.
The full range of the Matteo collection can be found at our flagship store within ABC Carpet & Home in New York and our showroom in Los Angeles.
DESIGN
PHILOSOPHY
We make our beds every morning. Therefore, our beds are simple. The seasons of the year are worth savoring. Sometimes we sleep on the deck under a linen sheet; sometimes we weigh down the duvet with blankets. Central air is nice, but an open window with fresh air is better.
Our sheeting is woven and finished to the same exact standards as those of the finest men’s shirting; you never need to wear anything to bed with Matteo.
NOTIONS
OF LUXURY
The luxury of leaving your pajamas in the dresser, the luxury of using renewable resources, the luxury of knowing the craftsmen who made your bedding were paid a living wage. We believe the splendid little details provide as much pleasure as the bold strokes – look for saddle- stitching, pin-tucking, and piped seams. We would never want to distract you from your thoughts, from your lover, from your sleep.
We all deserve a place of rest. The Matteo home stands in calm contrast to the complicated
demands of life outside – a modern sanctuary where you refresh mind, body and soul.
