A Visionary Convergence of Art and Architecture
Stéphan Ouzilou, known professionally as Fano, has spent decades refining a visual language born from personal transformation. Following a near‑paralytic spinal accident, one of the surgical screws used in his reconstruction became both symbol and medium—a testament to resilience, reconstruction, and the alchemy of turning industrial materials into museum‑grade art.
Today, his works grace private collections and public spaces across continents, each piece composed of thousands of meticulously placed screws that capture light, shadow, and meaning in equal measure.
Art transforms a villa from a residence into a legacy. With Signature Fano, we offer our clients the rare opportunity to live within a work of art—spaces that inspire daily while appreciating in cultural and financial value over time.
The Signature Fano Experience Within Your Villa
Architectural Integration from Concept to Completion
Unlike traditional art acquisition, where pieces are selected post‑construction, the Signature Fano program begins during the design phase. Our architectural teams collaborate directly with Fano's atelier to identify optimal locations for large‑scale installations: feature walls that command double‑height living spaces, sculptural door treatments that transform thresholds into artistic statements, and intimate installations within private galleries or wine cellars.
This early integration ensures that structural considerations—load‑bearing capacity, lighting infrastructure, climate control—are seamlessly woven into the villa's DNA. The result is art that feels inevitable, essential, as though the architecture itself were conceived to frame these singular works.
Materials and Methodology
Each Fano installation employs industrial‑grade materials treated with conservation‑level care. The screws—sourced from European manufacturers and selected for their precise dimensions and surface characteristics—are hand‑placed using proprietary techniques developed over decades. The process is both meditative and meticulous, with each screw contributing to larger compositions that shift subtly under changing light conditions throughout the day.
Preservation and Care
Every Fano installation comes with a comprehensive care program:
- Annual condition assessments by conservation specialists
- Custom cleaning protocols for different materials
- Environmental monitoring recommendations
- Emergency response planning for art conservation
Exclusive Benefits for Eleven Property Clients
Cultural Capital and Investment Value
Owning a Signature Fano installation elevates a residence beyond the realm of luxury into the domain of cultural significance. These are not decorative accents; they are collectible works by a recognized contemporary artist, complete with provenance documentation and authentication certificates. As Fano's international profile continues to rise—his works have been featured in major exhibitions across Europe and the Middle East—the investment dimension becomes increasingly compelling.
For ultra‑high‑net‑worth individuals who view real estate as both lifestyle and portfolio diversification, the integration of authenticated art within the property's infrastructure offers a unique value proposition: the cultural prestige of art ownership without the logistical complexities of separate storage, insurance, and security arrangements.
Bespoke Commissioning and Curatorial Support
Eleven Property provides end‑to‑end curatorial services for clients who wish to commission original works. Our team liaises with Fano's atelier to translate your vision—whether inspired by personal narrative, architectural themes, or abstract concepts—into a cohesive artistic brief. The commissioning process includes conceptual sketches, material samples, and phased approvals, ensuring complete alignment with your expectations before installation begins.
Each screw carries intention, each composition tells a story. Working with Eleven Property allows me to create works that are not just in the space, but of the space—responding to the architecture, the light, the very essence of the home.
