Carlo Zerbaro

"I hardy see any difference in styling a lamp, a chair, a catalogue, an interior architecture. All is design."

Carlo Zerbaro, designer, an experience starting from a family operating in hydro-electric engineering field. With such projecting background he starts his way towards communication research in design: he studies architecture attending various stages at Biennale Venezia.
