How is Il Giardino sul Comò made ?
Here you’ll find the mystery which is behind the Fantasy Gardens
Each one of Il Giardino sul Comò is a unique and exclusive creation, handmade with selected materials in the respect of nature.
In fact, for creating Il Giardino sul Comò I need necessarily three ingredients:
Inspiration
Imagination
Nature
The inspiration is like a quiver or an inner instinct that makes me go out for a walk with my dog Lola.
When I’m in Umbria our destinations are often a river or the woods of the hills, instead, when I’m in Malta, I love delving into the perfume of thyme and Malta countryside.
Nature always gives me what I call “precious objects”:
Dry little sticks
Abandoned twigs on the shore
Shells
Stones
Many people don’t care about branches fallen from trees along the path or about the strange shape and colours of certain stones; instead, I accurately pick them up because I know that each single piece has a story to tell!
So when I come back home I enter my creative laboratory and I connect to my imagination. I let myself go: the power of imagination will guide me.
Practically, is my imagination that knows how to assemble each single piece and put it in harmony with the others.
If you set free your imagination, you’ll be amazed of how it can guide you!
