La lunga e intensa attività di Antonio Piva, architetto e docente universitario, documenta un saldo e costante impegno intellettuale sul progetto di architettura, affrontato con sensibilità, misura e senso di responsabilità. In base a un’idea di ragione e di progresso non riducibile a soluzioni autoreferenziali, la sua azione si confronta con le condizioni e le molteplici mediazioni del contesto, introducendo lo stimolo di argomentazioni teoriche innovative come risorse per il progetto. L’attenzione di Piva ai riferimenti della contemporaneità traccia un nuovo indirizzo della cultura del progetto nella "Scuola milanese": l’inserimento dell’atto progettuale alla scala architettoni...

Franco Albini’s works of architecture and design, produced between 1930 and 1977, have enjoyed a recent revival but to date have received only sporadic scholarly attention from historians and critics of the Modern Movement. A chorus of Italian voices has sung his praises, none more eloquently than his protégé, Renzo Piano. Kay Bea Jones’ illuminating study of selected works by Studio Albini will reintroduce his contributions to one of the most productive periods in Italian design. Albini emerged from the ideology of Rationalism to produce some of Italy’s most coherent and poetic examples of modern design. He collaborated for over 25 years with Franca Helg and at a time when professio...

This open access book gathers the contributions from the Design! OPEN International Conference, held in Parma, Italy in May 2022. The conference explored the multidisciplinary aspects of design starting from its dimensions: objects (design as focused on the object, on its functional and symbolic dimension, and at the same time on the object as a tool for representing cultures), processes (the designer’s self-reflective moment which is focused on the analysis and on the definition of processes in various contexts, spanning innovation, social engagement, reflection on emergencies or forecasting), experiences (design as a theoretical and practical strategy aimed at facilitating experiential interactions among people, people and objects or environments), and narratives (making history, representing through different media, archiving, narrating, and exhibiting design). The contributions, which were selected by means of a rigorous international peer-review process, highlight numerous exciting ideas that will spur novel research directions and foster multidisciplinary collaboration among different specialists.
