Synergy Design and the Children of the Fairies:
Twenty years of inclusion.
We are here!
There are business decisions that arise from calculation, and then there are others that arise from a conviction.
We chose to join I Bambini delle Fate, the social enterprise founded in 2005 by Franco Antonello — a Venetian entrepreneur and father of Andrea, a boy with autism — which for twenty years has continuously funded social inclusion projects for children, young people and families who face every day the challenge of autism and other disabilities.
In Italy there are about 500,000 families who live this reality every day.
The Children of the Fairies does not manage facilities or provide direct services. Its model is different: it collects funds on an ongoing basis by involving companies and individuals, and distributes them to local partner associations that carry out projects in the field. This approach convinced us for a very specific reason: it is not a one-time contribution, but a support over time. Exactly the kind of presence we also believe in in our daily work.
Why we did it
Anyone working in design knows this: the most successful project is not the one that looks the best, but the one that truly improves the lives of those who use it. This is a belief that we bring into our design work every day.
Joining I Bambini delle Fate was a step consistent with what we believe in. We have been operating in this territory for years, working with companies and with concrete people, and we know that doing business also means being part of a community. That community also includes the Italian families who every day face the reality of autism and disability.
We chose this path because when you find a way of working that you believe in, it’s natural to seek the same rigor and consistency also outside the office.
