LOCATION

Xavier Corberò

The home of Xavier Corberó, one of Spain's most celebrated sculptors, offers a kaleidoscopic and instantly identifiable setting in keeping with the atmosphere of the Fendi Casa collections. Centered around an iconic code of the Roman Maison – the arch – the building is located in Esplugues de Llobregat, just outside Barcelona.

Whether it’s sculptures, building, or spaces, the outcome of what I do has to be poetry, which I believe is the measure of all things

Xavier Corberó

The arches frame the sky. Light falls on the objects, illuminating them with a shimmering glow. Everywhere, the excitement is palpable, because here a home is «a place in which the mental space – not the real one – is what matters». This is how the artist Xavier Corberó describes the house on the outskirts of Barcelona, conceived from his imagination and built up, one piece at a time over decades, to encompass his entire creative universe. In this veritable kaleidoscope of rooms, amidst sculptures and surrealist vistas, the furnishings of the Fendi Casa Collection find their ideal habitat, in an evocative setting that includes the arch - the Maison's expressive code - as its chosen idiom. Poetic architecture that transcends the imagination, and yet is still a home.
