A PASSIONATE DESIGNER
Ever since she was a child, drawing has nourished her passion, shaping a creative universe imbued with exacting standards, refinement and a love of beautiful materials and objects. Her precise line, her innate talent for sketching and the delicacy of her paintings transport us to the heart of the Principality of Monaco's emblematic monuments.
What sets her apart is her ability to fuse the traditional gestures of the brush with the technical mastery of the stylus on a graphics tablet, combining tradition and modernity. Collaborating with the most prestigious luxury houses, it is with enthusiasm and spontaneity that she has put her art at the service of the Monoïkos 1297 House, enriching its creations with a singular and elegant touch.
A NOTE OF HISTORY
Monaco is also famous for its iconic buildings.
The Prince's Palace
Monaco's Palais Princier dates back to 1191. It was originally built as a Genoese fortress to defend the region. It was only over the centuries that it became the official residence of the Princes of Monaco. Situated on the Rock, this symbol of Monegasque history and sovereignty is a remarkable architectural monument whose ceremonial rooms rival each other in splendour.
The Oceanographic Museum
Founded in 1910 by Prince Albert I, a pioneer in oceanography, Monaco's Oceanographic Museum is a veritable temple to the wonders of the sea. This majestic building perched on a cliff offers fascinating exhibitions and houses a famous aquarium, where you can discover the wealth of marine ecosystems.
Monaco Cathedral
Built in 1875, Monaco Cathedral, also known as Notre-Dame-Immaculée Cathedral, is the resting place of several members of the royal family, including Prince Rainier III and Princess Grace. Romanesque-Byzantine in style, it is the setting for many of the Principality's religious celebrations.
The Church of Sainte Dévote
The Church of Sainte Dévote, dedicated to the patron saint of Monaco, is a place of devotion steeped in Monegasque tradition. Nestling in a valley near the port, this small church is the setting for one of Monaco's oldest traditions: every 27 January, a boat is symbolically burnt in honour of Sainte Dévote.
The Monte-Carlo Casino
A true jewel of Belle Époque architecture, the Casino de Monte-Carlo is one of Monaco's most emblematic landmarks. Inaugurated in 1863, this monument attracts enthusiasts of gaming and elegance from all over the world, embodying the Principality's refined and luxurious art of living.
The Monaco Carob Tree
The carob tree, located on the Rock of Monaco, is an emblematic tree that is part of the Principality's natural heritage. Symbolising longevity and resilience, this hundred-year-old tree is a living witness to Monaco's history and its strong bond with nature.
The Exotic Garden
Perched high above Monaco, the Jardin Exotique is a haven of peace, famous for its exceptional collection of succulents and cacti. This enchanting site, opened in 1933, offers spectacular panoramic views over Monaco and the sea, while allowing visitors to discover rare plant species from the four corners of the globe.
In this way, the Principality, through its fascinating history and unique setting, continues to fascinate the world, combining monarchical tradition with daring modernity.

THE CASHMERE
The cashmere in this garment has been carefully chosen.
Fine and light, cashmere is warmer and more insulating than sheep's wool.
The fineness of its fibers makes it incredibly soft and extremely durable.
A well cared for cashmere will last a lifetime. Take care of it and you can pass it on to future generations.
In order to preserve its quality over time, we recommend that it be kept flat and untied and that you entrust its cleaning to a professional..
