From Architect to Artisan: Elisabeth’s Journey
In the heart of Mallorca, where the Mediterranean sun kisses the land with warmth and whispers stories of ancient traditions, Elisabeth Colom found her sanctuary. Born in Reus and shaped by Barcelona, her journey led to Mallorca, where she discovered not only a new home but also a profound connection to the island’s natural beauty. Elisabeth’s story is one of transformation and reconnection. As an architect by profession, she was drawn to the harmonious blend of modernity and tradition that defines the Mediterranean lifestyle. However, it wasn’t until she felt the urge to explore her creative instincts that the seeds of Santapalma were planted.
