{"title":"La Fabrika","description":"\u003cp\u003eSanem is the founder of La Fabrika, born in Turkey and now based in Monza, Italy.\u003cbr\u003eAfter 15 years in corporate life, she chose to step away and move toward a more tactile and grounded way of working.\u003cbr\u003eWhat began as a small personal studio in Istanbul and evolved through Athens is rooted in a slow, intentional approach to making. Drawn to the grounding nature of working with clay, she focuses on creating by hand: slowing down, concentrating, and shaping tangible forms.\u003cbr\u003eThe name itself reflects this approach. While “fabrika” evokes industrial production, here it becomes a place where thoughts and ideas are transformed into objects. “La” carries both a personal meaning and a connection to Italy. \u003cbr\u003eA key turning point in her practice came through collaborations with chefs and restaurants, working closely with them to develop pieces designed for the table. Approaching each object as a subtle extension of the food itself, she considers it an integral part of the dining experience. Since then, she has focused on tableware, conceived as quiet surfaces that support and elevate shared moments.\u003cbr\u003eAt the core of La Fabrika is an “imperfectly perfect” philosophy, where subtle irregularities and asymmetry define each object’s identity. Natural, earthy tones and hand-building techniques shape a calm, timeless aesthetic. Working primarily with stoneware, Sanem creates durable, functional objects, designed to be used, lived with, and return to the table every day.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0600\/9625\/0071\/collections\/sanem1.jpg?v=1775808112","url":"https:\/\/ta-daan.com\/en-eu\/collections\/la-fabrika.oembed","provider":"TA-DAAN Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
