It started when I was in my early twenties and I started to import furniture from Italy to Switzerland for my friends and co-workers. I was always drawn to aesthetics. The home interiors and beautiful gardens were always my passion so one day I decided to dedicate not only my passion to my own home, but to create beautiful homes for others.
