Eliana Gerotto is an Italian designer born in Venice in 1951. She began her career in Milan as a graphic designer after earning a degree in Communication Techniques at the Fondazione Davide Campari. From the start, her practice moved across multiple creative fields, including graphic design, industrial design, set curation, and interior decoration, giving her work a distinctly cross-disciplinary character.
Her professional path reflects an unusually broad understanding of visual culture and product identity. Foscarini notes that she worked as a graphic designer for the Parisian magazine Elle and for the Venice Biennale, while also collaborating with major Italian brands as both image and product consultant. She is especially recognized in the design world for co-creating Caboche with Patricia Urquiola for Foscarini, a lighting design that helped define her public profile through its decorative luminosity and strong visual presence. Across her work, Gerotto brings together styling, atmosphere, and product sensibility in a way that feels elegant, communicative, and distinctly Italian.
