About us

The Smoke Detector was founded in Milan, Italy back in 2012. Finishing their master studies in fashion communication, Ivona Josipovic and Doina Tatu realized that they wanted to share their passion for fashion, photography, art and discovering cool people and places. TSD was born as a platform that shines a light on amazing people and their stories that are often overlooked by mainstream media. After running the site for over five years, the girls are proud of interviewing amazing people like Eleonora Carisi, Frank Turner, and others, as well as giving space to amazing creative projects from all around the world.

Nowadays TSD has developed into space where one can share inspiration, tips about everything cool and start a conversation about topics that are important in our society and everyday life.
