CREATIVE ATTITUDE

“Every project is a challenge to create a feeling, even a subtle one, that consequently generates identity, vitality and a sense of belonging.”

Cibic & Partners, one of the most well known Italian design studios, was established in Milan at the end of the eighties.

For over ten years it has operated in many parts of the world. The Studio is a composite reality that by choice and by calling has occupied itself with projects of different nature – ranging from architecture to interiors and from design to multimedia communications.

Cibic and Partners is guided by four partners: Aldo Cibic is the design nucleus of the Studio and along with Luigi Marchetti and Chuck Felton, is closely connected to the work groups that are dedicated to the various projects. Antonella Spiezio is the strategic core of the partnership and is responsible for the organisation, administration of financial and human resources.

They are supported by a group of architects, interior designers, graphic artists, industrial designers, and a deep network of collaborating consultants of diverse professional and cultural backgrounds.

The result is an environment where there is an intense exchange of stimulation and energy, and where the principal aim is the realisation of solid and innovative projects.

The capacity for design and organisation are the two determining factors that make the Studio a creative and reliable partner for major business groups world-wide.

Aldo Cibic

Born in Schio (Vi) in 1955. He moved to Milan in 1979 to work with Ettore Sottsass, becoming his partner the following year, together with Matteo Thun and Marco Zanini. That same year, 1980, marked the creation of Memphis, of which Cibic was one of the designers and founders, under the guidance of Sottsass.

In 1989, he went out on his own, founding, together with Antonella Spiezio, Cibic & Partners, providing his personal design services for his own projects and for other companies, as well as expanding into the field of interior design and architecture projects in Italy and abroad. In 2001 entered in Cibic & Partners Luigi Marchetti and, in 2003, Chuck Felton.

In 2005 he is named Director of the Department of Design at Fabrica, the Benetton Research and Development Communication Centre.
