Philosophy
Your are the product of what you do everyday, and you can reinvent yourself as many times as you need. Philosophy is one of our greatest sources of inspiration. Take, for example, the ideas of one of the world's greatest thinkers, Baruch Spinoza. He is also celebrated as one of the most original and influential thinkers of the 17th century. It is largely thanks to his ideas that we in the West now consciously and ethically choose a modern era. This while preserving individual freedom in its moral, psychological, and metaphysical dimensions.
In turbulent times, we were still able to write down the most wonderful ideas that remain fascinating, current, and highly relevant to this day. The choices and forms we make collectively in our actual society ultimately shape the society in which we live. Thanks to dozens of philosophers from the past, we can often find help and important inspiration for everyday life questions.
Progressivism, general knowledge and independent thinking, real laws of nature, the real truth, freedom of speech, freedom of expression, always placing circumstances in context. That humans can, in principle, only rely on sensory experiences and sensory perceptions.
There's almost always a next level everywhere. And whoever can think freely, speak freely, and be free of expression...is a free person. Therefore, always follow your nature and your common sense. Art, culture, and sports should be a standard part of education. This way, you learn from an early age how to maintain your inner freedom and find sufficient positive inspiration.
The aesthetic label

Style mode
Beautiful souls recongnize beautiful souls. Elegance or true style is when the inside is as beautiful as the outside. Keep being genuine and the aesthetic will find you.
The ability to curate flexibly, and create independently. A new era calls for new ideas in the visual arts and creative culture. We are among the many style optimists capable of putting these ideas into practice.
True style is the new pretty. We choose to show our most authentic selves wherever we go. Dress for the occasion and treat yourself to something special. Pull out all the stops. A good outfit is a silent power move, and can be a showstopper. Stunning every day and everywhere; projecting what you do and what you want to be. Where the ordinary ends and the extraordinary begins: "Where style, class, strength, and cleverness converge."
Egyption roots
Aesthetics and free thinking always start with yourself these days. A mirror is therefore crucial for maintaining shapes and developing innovative styles.
In the beginning, long before the first mirror was created as an object, people used natural reflections, such as stagnant puddles and lakes. It was very time-consuming, but it was the first way to see their own reflection. This first form of reflection gave us a glimpse of ourselves, but was obviously very inconvenient and limited to the presence of natural water sources.
Ancient Egypt brought us the very first artificial mirrors that could be used as objects. With their discovery of bronze and copper and their invention of polished quartz, they created a reflective surface for seeing themselves. The Egyptians of that time during the Old Kingdom were immensely proud of their appearance.
Somewhere between 4000 and 3000 BC, the first hand mirrors were made. Precious and rare discs were cast or flattened from bronze or copper and then polished to a high gloss.
Soon after the creation of hand mirrors, makeup was widely used in ancient Egypt. Both men and women used it extensively for both aesthetic and protective purposes. Popular products for making ancient Egyptian makeup were kohl (made from galena or lead polish) for the eyes, malachite (green eyeshadow), and lapis lazuli (blue eyeshadow). Ochre was also used for cheek rouge and red ochre or hematite for lipstick.

The sartorial style
True style, shaping the aesthetic is an art. The sartorial style is definitely an art too.
Sartorial comes from the modern Latin word sartor. It refers to a lifestyle that involves a love of classic, timeless garments made with the highest level of craftsmanship, typically by Italian tailors.
Practical style tip: attention to detail and etiquette contributes to a well-groomed appearance, aesthetics and comfort.
The new society of style
The revival and rise of true style, where aesthetica is measured in pride, self-confidence and joy. The power of charisma, timeless elegance, and on special occasions being a little distinctive.

The art of styling
Art, styling, clothing, interior design, shaping interiors and fashion will always be connected and reinforce each other. This applies to both the depth of the work and its style, artistic freedom, color, and material choices. The art of styling is the silent communication and the way you can perfectly interpret style, color, classic rules, artistic details and codes.
Art and culture are always on a journey and in a flow of freedom with each other. This creates an inextricably beautiful connecting, and mixed influence by continue to view it from a positive perspective.
Master the art of styling, dress well for the occasion, and ensure you have the right clothes and accessories in your wardrobe:
a} Representativeness
People take you more seriously. This increases your self-confidence and reliability.
b} Professionalism
You are more organized and successful.
c} Status signal
It demonstrates perseverance, discipline, order, and maturity. This can also have a positive impact on business.
d} First impression
Clothing makes a difference, and first impressions are often crucial. Overdressed is fine, but avoid looking like a clown at all costs.
Tip: receiving compliments and tips is healthy, but if someone feels the need to say something negative about your outfit...you can always ask back; 'compared to whom'?
Masters of style
They can imitate your style, but they can not imitate your crativity & knowledge. Your style should be a reflection of you and your dreams.
Together with TFM - Brands we strive for optimism, the return of aesthetics and pure style in all markets.
Let your style speak for you, let your style work for you and let it flourish.
How fashion, architecture and design gain meaning through the interplay of aesthetics, use, context, style, and visual art. Art and style are no longer something we only view in museums and exhibitions. But have become a force that directly influences our living environment and imagination.
Style says it all, even before you say anything. We choose true style. Not to stand out, but to be clear about who we are and what we represent. It's about attitude, healthy habits and a standard lifestyle.
It shows that you are prepared, that you value detail, and that you respect the people you meet. That mindset is visible in everything we do. That we will always dress up for the occesion and in the conversations we lead.
We're not talking about tailored suits, but about true style, which reminds us who we really are, what we want to represent in real life, and that we represent something greater than ourself.
Masters of Style isn't what we wear: "It's what we project".
