MODERATOR :Cosimo Bizzarri , COLORS Executive editor TANKBOYS Tankboys is a Venice-based independent design studio founded in 2005 by Lorenzo Mason and Marco Campardo, both graduated in Design at the Arts and Design Faculty of IUAV, Venice University. Tankboys’ core activities consist of art direction, research, print, identity and editorial projects. Alongside with that, they give lectures, hold workshops and run a publishing house called Automatic Books. All projects are treated with a deep focus on contents together with a conceptual approach that generate a specific language, expressed by a significant use of typography. Tankboys’ practice is based on a craft-like methodology and multiple-skills philosophy, where multidisciplinary and complex projects are tackled, taking advantages from an increasing network of external collaborations with curators, editors, artists, writers, photographers and architect.
