Narratives

The narrative vocation of design represents a crucial key of interpretation in contemporary cultural expressions: making history, representing through different media, archiving and exhibiting.

This section explores narratives in three different “dimensions”: narrative as a scenario (envisioning new contexts, behaviours, uses, spaces); narrative as a tool (creating new ways to trigger innovation), narrative as a process (framing new methodologies to face complex issues).
