Close your eyes and imagine
A sand-colored house, the Romagna hills, the intense scent of lavender in the air, the breeze blowing through the open windows.
Within the walls of an ancient farmhouse, slowly brought back to life through a careful process of research and restoration, Casa Color Sabbia by Francesca Faraoni comes into being.
A space that is at once a studio, a refuge, and the stage for her artistic visions. Casa Color Sabbia is the home-studio of sculptor Francesca Faraoni: an intimate, everyday space where, in a balance between inspiration and privacy, a line of natural lavender-scented products also takes shape.
Passionate about clay from a very young age, Francesca nurtured her talent at the Academy of Fine Arts before dedicating herself entirely to sculpture: from bronze to clay.
Her works seek harmony and perfection, driven by an authentic sensitivity towards the material. The human body, especially the female form, is her favourite subject: figures of young women portrayed in spontaneous and graceful poses, capable of expressing tenderness and allure.
The house
For fifteen years, Francesca, together with her husband Damiano, worked with patience and dedication to revitalize the house: "We know every inch of our home."
The entrance welcomes with simplicity and warmth: a salvaged old table, different chairs, each with its own story. Each door is unique, restored and reinvented, expressing a personal language: "We deeply love the art of reuse." The lighting is soft, designed to accompany the silence and reflect the soul of the spaces. Arranged over two floors, the house alternates intimate spaces with convivial areas. Upstairs, salvaged objects coexist: outdoor cinema seats, furniture from a disused building, mirrors and utensils selected and elegantly reinterpreted. And then there's the sea, visible from the windows: a discreet yet constant presence.
On the ground floor is Francesca's studio: a bright space where natural light accompanies her work on the surfaces of her sculptures. This is where her "containers of emotions" are born: hand-molded terracotta objects, designed to preserve memories and fragments of life. At the back of the house, a long table reflects the family's dedication to hospitality, a love of sharing experiences, ideas, and moments, overlooking a field of 11,000 lavender plants.
Le Galanterie
From this deep bond with the land, Le Galanterie (di) Casa Color Sabbia was born: a line of natural artisanal products, created by Francesca and Damiano.
A project that takes shape within the home and preserves its soul: every element, from the product to the packaging, tells a story crafted by hand, with care and authenticity.
Lavender and helichrysum are the protagonists of this collection. The shades of violet meet the golden tones of helichrysum, a sun-loving plant with a warm fragrance and notes reminiscent of liquorice. Their precious properties accompany everyday gestures, transforming them into small rituals. Only a few years have passed since the first seedlings were planted, and today the landscape has been completely transformed.
This is the most beloved season: from sunrise to sunset, the violet hues of lavender embrace the landscape and its fragrance fills every space. Lavender preserves the scent of summer and releases it throughout the year, among the linens and throughout the rooms of the home. It is the result of patient work, made with hands and heart, like everything truly authentic.
Casa Color Sabbia is a place where art, nature, and emotions intertwine.
