This volume examines the transformation of yacht design within the context of the digital and industrial transitions characterising contemporary design practice. Drawing on over ten years of research, the volume investigates how computational technologies, advanced manufacturing, and data-driven systems are redefining processes, roles, and disciplinary boundaries in the yachting industry.

This book presents the results of the FARB (Fondo d’Ateneo per la Ricerca di Base) research project RELIVE, conducted within the Department of Design of Politecnico di Milano. RELIVE aimed to explore and conceptualize a framework for designing living artefacts. The objectives of the research are the conceptualization of original theory regarding livingness and the exploration of design-oriented approaches to craft living artefacts using living materials and digital technologies.

Opportunities and implications. Notes on Doctoral Research in Design 2020
This book proposes an overview of the researches initiated in 2015 in the Design PhD programme of Politecnico di Milano. All of them explore the implications of the ongoing digital transformations, from the specific perspective of design research. Throughout the book, the cultural, organisational, social, and managerial issues raised by digital technology, are debated and how such issues call for a reframing of design processes, practices and models.
