Mediterranean artistry & light
I'm Isabella Rossi, curator of Mediterranean Light. Every property I feature tells a story of heritage craftsmanship, natural light choreography, and the artisans who breathe life into stone and timber. From Portuguese quintas to Italian ateliers, these homes balance history with contemporary clarity—and might be more attainable than you imagine.
