ENA MONO is a small sanctuary of expression for its creators<\/strong><\/p>

Our starting point is always a feeling \u2014 that quiet tremor stirred by objects with a soul, the ones that seem to whisper, to breathe faintly at your side, to awaken memories, to unfold stories, and to soothe you simply by their beauty. From that feeling, our journey of inspiration takes flight.<\/p>

Objects once neglected, forgotten in storage rooms, are transformed in our hands. They are restored, cared for, and brought back to life \u2014 ready to find a place in your world, paired with others in compositions meant for homes with character and intention.<\/p>

In an age content with minimalism, we yearn for color, radiant fabrics, passion, light, intensity. There are no limits to what can move us: a piece of furniture clumsily made yet carrying a touch of innocence; a lamp that once cast its glow over old readings; a caramel-toned blanket woven on a loom, warmed by the dreams it once covered; or a wooden spool that turned into a toy once its thread was gone.<\/p>

At ENA MONO, every object holds a story \u2014 and is eager to write a new one. To become part of a collection. To begin a new journey.\nYour journey.<\/p>

Elsa Koppassi, who envisioned ENA MONO, is a psychologist who also paints furniture, travels, acts in theatre, and writes stories \u2014 with words, with colors, or with objects.<\/p>

Ioanna Palaska loves interior design, specializes in fabrics, and transforms furniture with exquisite aesthetic sensitivity, giving each piece a new breath of life.<\/p>

Jonathon Marc Mendes is an internationally recognized artist who turns ordinary furniture into works of art.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

    It was in 2018 that I decided to remodel my home and realized how much stuff I had accumulated. It was that second that led me to write the following. An idea had just been born. A dream was about to come true.\u00a0<\/p>

    ENA MONO refers to that one single second when you said: I will change my life. I will find a way to remember my dreams and I will go\u2026 I will go see those distant rivers and seas, the mountains and the people who have always fascinated me. I will leave all my belongings behind and I will travel. of that one single second in which you said, I will change my life.<\/strong>. I will find a way to remember my dreams and I will go... I will go to see those rivers and distant seas, the mountains and the people that have always fascinated me. I'll leave behind all my possessions and travel.<\/p>

    But how?\nHow can I leave behind that little box filled with mother-of-pearl buttons, or my collection of bottles gathered from every corner \u2014 apothecary bottles, clear blue and green, bottles from another age, when glass was used for everything, before plastic invaded our lives. \nAnd what about my beloved furniture? My father\u2019s desk; the cradle I bought in a village outside Vienna where I laid my third child?\nThe Gall\u00e9 vases in my collection, the stamps?<\/p>

    What about the linen sheets with their embroidered monogram, the wooden ladders that I string with fairy lights to brighten the room?\nAll those objects that filled my life \u2014 beautiful, unique \u2014 what am I to do with them?\nTheir place is not in a storage room, sealed away without air or human breath, all those things that formed the set on which my life unfolded.<\/p>

    And then my mind was enlightened and I made my decision. I will make decorative suggestions and share them with you. They will gently pass from my hands to yours. They are unique objects, most are ena mono but as they found themselves cuddled together in my home, somehow they will find a way to conjoin with yours .<\/p>

    Together, their stories will continue to be written; for each one carries a story.\nA story I know, and another one I imagined while gathering them from flea markets, attics, streets, relatives and loved ones.\nAnd perhaps at the same time, you will learn pieces of my own story as I let them go, in order to find new treasures in the places I will travel.
    ENA MONO will be a platform where objects will become a step of communication between us.<\/p>

    Writing is my other love. So in ENA MONO I will collect everything I have loved, the beautiful objects, the words, the thirty years of my work in psychotherapy and what they have left as an imprint on who I am today and as I walk I will share the journey with you hoping that ENA MONO second is enough to change your life and seize the day.\u2019.<\/p>
