5. That is very different from others = EXTRAVAGANT, SINGULAR

We spend a large part of our existence hiding characteristics that are part of our uniqueness. We fragment ourselves into a thousand little pieces - an attempt to assemble them into another, maybe a more beautiful, more perfect version of ourselves, a version that
we think is more acceptable to others and to the world.

We close up those that don't fit into the puzzle of our expectations in a little box that floats around inside us, somewhere between the conscious and unconscious sides of our mind.

To be unique in a world that is both good and intolerant is lonely.
Our acceptance of others and our surroundings begins with the acceptance of ourselves.

Beauty lies in the transformation of parts into a whole.
Into something that can be raw, strong and fragile at the same time. And then we begin our existence fully, in each thought and action, unique, perfect in our own imperfection, aware of our place in the world.

At Tosco, each object is unique.
Each one, with its singularities, details, and imperfections, lives in perfect harmony in a celebration between two opposite sides - the rough and the polished.

That is the essence of TOSCO.
