A full-immersion course that will provide students with an overview of Italian design methodology and the work in a specific context, in this case Rome. Students will be introduced to the culture of a project with all its different working steps to pass through. From the reformulation of an initial briefing, starting exploration of the context and the analysis of all the factors that will lead to an articulation of a design language. Students will explore the lifestyle, the everyday life, artisanal workshops in Rome and of course its art and cultural life. The common goal is to come up with a concept and its visualization of a space concept that will reflect a unique Roman lifestyle.

This course is intended for students without any academic background in the specific subject area and for students attending their first year of university studies in Art and Design.
