Mario Trimarchi, born in Sicily, has lived and worked in Milan since 1983. He has been Director of Advanced Design at the Domus Academy and part of the Olivetti Design Studio, where he worked with Michele De Lucchi. In 1999 he founded his own Corporate Identity Care studio, FRAGILE. With FRAGILE he designs systems of identity, coordinated image and visual alphabets through which diverse individualities can be expressed. He has designed many trademarks, most notably for Poste Italiane, the graphics for numerous large exhibitions, communications systems for Italian design companies and, finally, many displays and interiors.

Since its founding in 1921, Alessi has gradually evolved to become one of the leading factories of Italian design. Working with a variety of materials such as stainless steel, glass, and plastic, Alessi's mission is to reconcile art and industry, creating handcrafted objects produced with the help of machines.
