Cultural Observatory
Each Master’s is based on a theoretical framework structured by a cycle of conferences and seminars, the Cultural Observatory. It is an exclusive program, held by renowned experts from all over Europe, providing the opportunity for speakers and students to exchange ideas and debate relevant questions for their theses.
These meetings are held in the Labs Spaces, in an informal environment that favors an open dialogue and free exchange of opinions and ideas. Offers a privileged platform for perceiving the scenarios in which designers must develop their activities and decide how to design the world.
The objective is to trace the shape of the worldwide landscape, identifying its problems and possible solutions, as well as the trends and values in play. Developed on the basis of the participation of thinkers, designers and artists, it offers the most up-to-date vision of the theoretical and practical reality of design at the hand of its protagonists.
