Renato Zamberlan was born in the
province of Venice in 1970. After
studying Business Administration
at Ca' Foscari University, he began
a long professional career that led
him to combine the commercial and
creative aspects in various sectors,
ranging from photography to
graphics, from art to fine publishing.
He works with the Art'è group
and the prestigious Franco Maria
Ricci publishing house, as well as
with multinational manufacturing
and chemical companies. His
multidisciplinary training and his
constant search for new stimuli
led him to approach the world of
furniture in 2012. He began his
collaboration with Horm as Sales
Director for the Italian and North/
South American markets and almost
simultaneously offered his creative
contribution by designing some
of the brand's most commercially
successful products.
In 2014 he became a partner of
the group and since 2015 he has
been Artistic Director, signing
some stylistic choices that led
Renato Zamberlan
Designer
the company to obtain important
awards and recognitions such as
the Good Design Award (2014), the
Red-Dot Winner Award (2016), the
ADI Design Index (2015 and 2016),
the Second Prize Archiproducts
Design Awards (2016) and
the honourable mention at the
Compasso d'Oro (2016) that Horm
won for the seventh time in its young
life. In this capacity he dictates
the stylistic lines of the group's two
brands (Horm and Casamania),
in the awareness that creativity,
technology, production and the
different needs of the various
international markets in which the
company operates are elements
of a single whole. Constant travel
to meet the group's business
partners and daily dialogue with
the company's technical and
production departments are the
cornerstones on which his idea of
design rests, which must excite and
innovate, without this happening
to the detriment of a product's
functionality and manufacturing
ethics. In 2017 he became Chairman
of the Board of Directors of Horm
Italia Srl.
