Renata Leitao offers clothing, perfumes, beauty products, jewelry, sunglasses, interior design in collaboration with many Greek brands.

(Ancient Kallos clothing, Greek Archaic Kori, Zeus + Dione; jewelry by Antonia Karra and Katerina Psoma; home accessories Themis Z) and international (Farm, Lenny Nieymeyer, Frescobol and Osklen clothing from Brazil; Laboratorio Olfattivo perfumes from Italy; Granado skincare products from Brazil: Clasu perfumes from Portugal: Kaleos sunglasses from ‘Spain).

Useful or not, he makes sure that his creations have a patina and texture that refer to the elements that made them up: earth, water and fire.
