The project was born in 2014<\/strong> within the walls of the Kanz Architetti studio<\/strong>, from an idea by Mauro Cazzaro<\/strong> and Antonella Maione<\/strong> to give voice and space to the creativity of designers and brands that interpret Venetian craft production with mastery and contemporary creativity.<\/p>\n
