Alfredo Chiaramonte studied at the Faculty of Architecture in Venice. Marco Marin graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts, specializing in industrial design. In 1989 the professional partnership between Alfredo Chiaramonte and Marco Marin was launched, with the foundation of the eponymous Designstudio. Both share a passion for objects which manifest as industrial products. Their professional interest ranges across numerous fields (interior, graphic, industrial, lighting) and benefits from the permeation of experiences and knowledge they have gained over the years, thus creating an interdisciplinary perspective, a kind of humus to fertilize the soil of their ideas. This is, for example, how the long-standing collaboration with Murano glass companies has allowed them to short-circuit two apparently different fields, creating several lines of objects, glasses and blown glass lamps for leading companies. They have collaborated with companies in the furniture and publishing sector including Bonaldo, Cattelan Italia, and Vistosi. They taught for a period at the European Centre for the Conservation of Architectural Heritage of Venice.
