From 2003, he began producing solid wood furniture, with pieces of demolition – columns, beams and posts of old houses – baptized as “Contemporary Carpentry.” From 2005, he began to create a new line of furniture pieces produced industrially using controlled origin wood and different materials such as plastic, acrylic, metals and other parts of manufactured products. To represent this new furniture line, Zanini creates Studio Zanini in 2011.

He has received the most prestigious Design awards in Brazil and abroad for creating furniture in both segments, and has exhibited in major national and international events in the area. Today, Zanini signs pieces to large national and international brands such as Tolix (France), Poltrona Frau, Cappellini and Slamp (Italy) and Espasso (USA). Selected Designer of the Year by Maison & Objet Americas 2015.
