exploring taste—santa margherita gruppo vinicolo people —enrica cavarzan and marco zavagno

Founded in Venice in 2006 by Enrica Cavarzan and Marco Zavagno, Zaven is a multidisciplinary studio
that combines design, communication and art, creating projects that are both creative and functional, with

a unique identity and artisan roots, the result of a continuous blend of logic and instinct, rules and chaos.
Enrica loves chopping boards and classic wines, Marco loves pitchers and surgically slicing vegetables,
and one of their best projects together was inspired by an egg. Studio Zaven’s designs have been exhibited
at the Triennale di Milano and art galleries in London, Paris and Istanbul, but the real secret is that all
their ideas are born in the kitchen, the heart of their home. Despite their young age, Enrica and Marco

have worked with both Italian and international institutions, in art and industry, with brands including
Nike, Mercedes Benz, Red Bull, Telecom Italia and Tod’s, putting their creativity to good use.
