Italian Design Day. Manufacturing value: inclusiveness, innovation and sustainability <\/h3>\n\n\n\n
If last year’s theme, “Quality that lights up\u201d, was focused on the finished product, this year’s theme, ” Manufacturing Value: inclusiveness, innovation and sustainability” shifts the focus to the value of the production process. At the center of the research is the need to investigate how products are created, as well as value through manufacturing processes, so as to combine tradition and craftsmanship with the most modern techniques in terms of technology and environmental sustainability, thus reaffirming Italy’s manufacturing and production primacy. A focus that addresses the most pressing social, political and economic issues of our time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The goal is to identify models and good practices capable of meeting the challenges of contemporaneity, highlighting the ability of Italian design to create and spread culture, as well as forms. The day also legitimizes the vocation of Italian design to weave and strengthen relationships between craftsmanship and innovation, as well as between different countries that share a value system even in productivity and act to respond to major planetary issues. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In addition to Italian Design Day, there are several exhibitions dedicated to Italian design that, as part of the activities planned for the initiative, could be visited abroad in the coming months:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Today, Thursday, March 14, 2024, marks the eighth edition of Italian Design Day, the event that promotes Italian design abroad Thursday, March 14, 2024, marks the eighth edition of Italian Design Day, an event created in 2017 with the aim of promoting of Italian design abroad, thanks to numerous initiatives taking place on the same […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":32923,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[333],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-32938","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"\n![\"Italian](\"https:\/\/designdiffusion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/IMG_2675-Denise-Manzi-\u00a9\ufe0f-3-1024x683.jpeg\")

On the occasion of Italian Design Day 2024, a project by Angelo Ferrara is also being produced in a limited edition. This “portable mirror sculpture” in which the IDD logo is reflected and makes people reflect is inspired by Bruno Munari’s “travel sculptures”, “foldable, light, very small, to be carried with you so that they can create, in anonymous hotel rooms, a link with your own culture.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/designdiffusion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/APC_0023-2-768x1024.jpg\")
