Theme:
There is an increasing attention to the definition of the “character” of places for public spaces. The added value which Italian design has been able to develop within home spaces is now focusing on places in which to develop group activities ranging from dining and hospitality facilities to public areas for leisure and work. This is about a large sector where design could help to develop and improve our relationship with objects and tools.
