Processes

In this section, we aim to investigate, also through the various records kept in the CSAC archives, how designers develop and test their models, both at the production, implementation, and research levels. The areas of investigation this section welcomes are those addressing innovation, social engagement, and pursuing a reflection on emergencies or forecasting. The section will serve as the arena for discussion on topics revolving around both the different moments in the history of design and the contemporary condition.
