Italia Design

Simon Fraser University - School of Interactive Arts & Technology

Description

I was one of 13 students, hand-picked and led by field school director Russell Taylor to study Italian history, culture and design. The most exciting part of this research is interviewing the 13 prominent design companies and designers in Italy including Danese's Carlotta de Bevilaqua, Stephano Boeri, James Irvine and Massimiliano Fuksas. My sub-team chose to focus on comparing Italy and China's approach to design and innovation. A research paper including various info models were developed as a result.
