Fire has always been a symbol of strength and energy. Because the candle with its wax, il crepitio, the flame that dances in its setting evokes magic and mystery but also speaks of warmth, of welcome,, of proximity. And so the candles have become over time a new 'result' of Katia's creative force. So a new project, accompanied by a KS brand: Katia Santamaria plays with light creating a soft and welcoming atmosphere. Each creation is curated by KS and its staff through the use of different materials: glass, porcelain, plaster enriched with dried fruit, flowers, made with essential oils that emit a natural perfume suitable to awaken different sensations and emotions and thus tell the essence of every occasion.

Candles are a wonderful way to celebrate birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, degrees are also an elegant way to add that final touch to any room in the house.

Katia works step by step. The set-up must involve every place touched by the spouses, which must therefore be studied in its characteristics. Drawings, spray, sketches will be a prelude to the final work to better plan every detail.

The first meetings will be useful to get to know each other and to understand the spirit that animates the couple. Then, after the choice of materials, we will move on to the planning of the set-up. All guided by Katia based on the clues that the bride and groom will provide.

E, as we said, we proceed by giving space to ideas that will then become the plot of the event to be told made of details each in relation to the other. The goal is to create a common thread, a rouge file that will accompany every nuance of the day. And to touch the idea,  Katia decided to accompany and guide the couple through the moodboard: a story in images of what will be the spirit of the wedding to be set up. It is the visual and tactile representation of the identity of the project, it is the concept of the event which will then be developed through the concrete preparation of the various details of the wedding. A conceptual map, for wedding designers and newlyweds, never lose sight of the common thread of the love story to be told through Katia's creative art.

 And so the moodboard will be a set of images, prototypes, drafts and drawings, with the aim of visually representing our feelings and our vision with respect to a project.

A visual representation is often stronger than a thousand written words. For this reason, Katia uses the moodboard as an ideal tool to show customers the vision of the creative concept and let them savor in advance, the sensations related to it.

Advice, Design, Development: there are three stages of a journey that Katia takes together with the client.

Advice: Listening is essential to understand the needs of the customer who is directed to achieve the set goal together, through a plan designed ad hoc by Katia and her staff. Empathy and the ability to wear the customer's clothes are the real strengths to shape the tailor-made layout of each event.

Design: The second phase is useful for shaping the idea outlined during the consultation. The Work Project uses drafts, moad board and sketches and also site visits if necessary to outline the intervention plan more precisely. Katia and her staff guide the customer in achieving the set goal, whether it is romantic or impactful, undoubtedly unique and unrepeatable.

Development: It is the third and last moment of Katia's creative chain. It means giving
word to the event through its preparation. It is the moment when Katia's creativity and flair
find concreteness in the care, only, of every detail.
