Abstract

It is usual to think of design as a skillful creator of pleasing and attractive forms. In reality the form, and the material product that results from it, is only the expression of a far more complex system of values that are articulated in material antithesis, that of bits and that of atoms (Anderson 2010, 2012), that is digital and analog ones. Atoms, at the same time, are closely linked to the dimensions of time and space: real matter can become an expression of the resources and the territory connotations, taking us very far “from the image of Geppetto and his carpenter’s shop” (Micelli, 2011). Consequently, the role of the designer is also progressively event has greater possibilities of future. This is the methodological approach of above all intangible components that generate a system, enhancing the identity the single and for the community.
