vision
It’s time for design to consider technological culture in its holistic range of meanings: the use of renewable energy sources, innovative production processes, low-impact and recyclable materials, is the key to achieve environmental sustainability, that means technological research at the service of human being and nature health.
Nature is also an unlimited inspiration source to develop new design languages: topological and morphological organic references, through digital technology and 3D generative modeling tools, guide ethic and aesthetic design processes in order to define the dynamic body of values for architecture, spaces and products: economic and ecological issues, structural solutions, sensorial emotionalism, ergonomics, symbolism, lightness, irony, fluidity…
