Made in Monaco
Mobile in Milan in April — it became even
cooler than Fashion Week!
HM: With which interior designers do
you collaborate the most?
S: I work with many of them locally and world-
wide: Humbert & Poyet, Espen Oeino, Andrew
Winch, François Zuretti, Sinot Design.
HM: Have you ever performed your «inte-
rior art» at Maison&Objet, or at the Milan
Design Week… or anywhere else?
S: I go there to buy, not to sell. If you want
to come and see my work, visit us at the Mo-
naco Yacht Show (26–29 Sept 2018) or Dubai
Yacht Show (26 Feb — 2 March 2019).
HM: Where are your products produced?
S: Most of them are produced in Italy
and France.

HelloMonaco: Расскажите нам немного о себе. Откуда вы ро-
дом, где учились?
Sabrina: Я родилась в итальянской семье в Монако. Здесь я вы-
росла и получила бизнес-образование. До запуска своего бренда
«Sabrina Monte-Carlo» я работала в модной индустрии на протя-
жении примерно десяти лет, а затем мы с сестрой, которая была
преподавателем искусства, решили открыть собственный биз-
нес, связанный с дизайном. Мои дочери тоже родились здесь,
учились за границей, а потом решили начать работать со мной.
Это то, что делает меня абсолютно счастливой: работа в родном
городе со своими близкими!
HM: Beauty in details, it is so much «Sabrina Monte-Carlo».
In your experience, what kind of decoration piece can most
change the total look and feel of a house?
S: I love crystal pieces. That’s why I opened a Lalique store this year.
I also sell Baccarat and Saint Louis; they really reflect the French
savoir-faire. Chandeliers, vases, sculptures — they give every room
a touch of refinement.
HM: We know, His Serene Highness Prince Albert II was at the
opening of your new boutiques and visits them quite often in
general. For our curiosity, what kind of interior decoration
pieces is the Princely couple usually interested in?
S: I offered His Serene Highness a Lalique tiger sculpture and he
was extremely happy with it!
HM: HSH Prince Albert II set up a Foundation whose purpose is
to protect the environment and to encourage sustainable de-
velopment. Is sustainability important in your business?
S: This is more a subject for naval and home architects, but I try
to make my company more sustainable. We created our company
fabric bags for the deliveries in order to save paper and cardboard
and I just bought an electric car for all our deliveries. Every little
contribution helps…
