Raffaello Galiotto

Projects

New project

Studied painting at the ‘Accademia di Belle Arti’ in Venice. He set up his own activity and his industrial design practice in 1993. At first he worked for companies belonging to the furniture industry, designing outdoor furniture, thus becoming highly experienced in the design of big plastic products produced in large-scale quantities. He expanded his horizons by applying his knowledge to different, additional sectors, from furniture, to kitchens, to items for pets, to stone products, learning more about materials and technologies used for different types of production. In the stone sector, in particular, he creates innovative products characterized by a surprising work on surfaces, gaining him many national and international awards. He cooperates with some eminent Italian Universities giving lectures and conferences, with the involvement of international architects. He is professor of Design at Ferrara University. In the last years he produced some important events dedicated to stone design of international character, conducting a personal search through the unexplored aspects of the marble as gravity, the translucency, reflection and sustainability. In 2011, the board of directors of Stonetech fair in Beijing realized a one-man exhibition dedicated to his stone design projects.
