Trained at the polytechnic university of milan and, in the immediate post-war years, co-editor of the magazine domus with ernesto n. Rogers, he received the gold medal and the grand prize at the milan triennial on various occasions (editions viii, ix, x, xi and xiii), and won five compassi d'oro between 1956 and 1985. Zanuso was one of the first designers in italy to take an interest in the industrialization of the product, going beyond the aesthetic question to incorporate technological, industrial, of distribution and communication. According to zanuso, the shape of an object destined for serial reproduction is an amalgam of possibilities, experimentation and innovation in the concrete process that connects creativity, production and sociocultural context. "through my projects, i want to shape what i call complexity", marco zanuso.
