Swedish artist, designer, writer, and critic Tyra Lundgren was the first female designer hired at Venini. Working closely with Paolo Venini, Carlo Scarpa, and master blower Arturo Biasutto (Boboli), Lundgren's dynamic personality and layered knowledge of international art and design would deeply affect the direction of the company.
