Notes on Doctoral Research in Design.

Contributions from the Politecnico di Milano

The Politecnico of Milan was the first university in Italy to start a PhD degree program in industrial design in 1990, under the direction of Tomás Maldonado. After the direction of Ezio Manzini (1996-2009), Francesco Trabucco became the director of the program and focused his attention on the nature of design. This book collects the first results of this new direction.

Il design per i beni culturali.

Pratiche e processi innovativi di valorizzazione

Uno strumento per comprendere il sistema del design per i beni culturali, un testo che, partendo dall’osservazione di progetti eccellenti e dalla presentazione di sperimentazioni progettuali in contesti reali, delinea il passaggio da una visione per competenze a una per processi, e propone un concetto di valorizzazione design oriented, che renda progettabili e attivabili le relazioni tra il contesto, il bene culturale e la comunità in cui è collocato, attraverso modelli e strumenti operativi concreti.
