What is the reason and what should we expect? Sabrina Monteleone-Oeino: We needed to freshen it up as it has now been 10 years since we first opened! The key to our success is always to improve and look for the newest ideas. The showroom looks like a chic version of a «beach shop». Natural materials (wood, bamboo) are mixed with modern ones (mirror, marble, metal, glass…) for an elegant yet contemporary look. HM: Who was the designer of the new project? Sabrina: My team and myself worked in collaboration with the Monaco-based design studio Humbert & Poyet. It is always a pleasure working with them. 106 / Hello Monaco Spring–Summer 2020 www.hellomonaco.com
