Qeeboo - A New Generation Brand

During the 14 th century, a small group of young poets from Florence (Guido Cavalcanti, Guido Guinizzelli, Lapo Gianni, Dante Alighieri, Cino da Pistoia) were the first to stop the Middle Age with its dogmatic and useless theologies in order to talk about Love, about Women (which may have never even existed, just like Petrarca’s Laura), about their diversity from the Byzantines, becoming witnesses of a generation without a clear destiny… By inventing the Women, they also invented the New Men.

Dante, the Father, coined for them this magical name, which changed not only poetry but also the history of the world… As a matter of fact, all great things always come from little ones, apparently useless and redundant; from a title and sometimes by chance. The Dolce Stil Novo of Design is founded on a figurative and narrative matrix, completely different from the one of the commercial markets, but maybe even more invasive than that, herald of a new feminine and masculine sensitivity: less testosterone, more irony, more simplicity. An innocent Design and therefore braver.

The V-2 rocket from World War II became an icon in the 1950s a symbol of futuristic technology and the American space program. It became iconic with children as the rocket that took the character Tin Tin to the moon.

The name V-2 Schneider comes from a track from 1977 by David Bowie, named after one of the co-founders of Kraftwerk a big influence on his music. The rocket is a familiar shape with hints of the lava lamp with its glowing light, and a children’s model of a rocket, but re-defined for the modern home. This streamlined rocket is a part of the historical inheritance of our generation from WWII.
