Chiara’s creations, in our case groups of spheres of various sizes decorated with the traditional collage technique, are much more than simple artifacts that adorn the environments. Depicting sets of alphabet letters, each one is a fragment of narration. Their real value lies in actively participating in the villas’ experience design, creating an environment that welcomes and speaks to guests, offering a warm welcome and an immediate sense of belonging. In a context where travel can be exhausting and the soul seeks comfort, these expressions of warm Italianity remind us that beauty can also be healing.
As one can easily imagine, her contribution to Elbitat’s interior design is not limited to a remarkable demonstration of artisanal expertise. Her installations are the materialization of a deep thought, which, like a glue, holds together the paper layers they are composed of, giving them meaning: an artifact is never an end in itself but gives sensations to those who observe it, then absorbing the wonder that look returns. A continuous play of references.
At Elbitat, the encounter with the art of Chiara Scalabrino is a journey into beauty, uniqueness, and sustainability, an experience that enriches the stay and leaves an indelible mark. The villas, with their well-kept and functional interiors, thus become not only places of relaxation but also spaces of inspiration and connection with deep values, reflecting the very essence of hospitality that seeks to go beyond the conventional to touch the soul.
