Design and clothing
For those who are keen on household design mention must be made of the numerous wholesale outlets connected with some of the most famous National brands: in particular, Alessi, but also Bialetti and Lagostina.
Another important art is that of painting on cloth; Orta is a leader when it comes to the personalization of fabric with distictive hand painting.
