DENSO DESIGN
No full textIn its wandering between emotions and rules, exactness and vagueness, design moves within malleable environments; and as disciplines proliferate, the work of a designer becomes prone to contradictory interpretations. In the attempt to avoid rules new ones are generated; changing values, and social and commercial implication interact in more or less tangible form, providing economic support to the global system, in a society striving for an unattainable common identity. As a result, trying to make design fit into a consistent historical continuity ends up making it too simple or too complex, thus causing it to resort to unlikely authenticity, forced insights, and reducing the new functions’ semantic strength to the usual images. After many years of history repeating itself in cycles , “ready”, “vintage” and new trends, in other words, of rules that would serve as examples to spread design affiliations, contemporary design breaks free of the old concept of style, which is too unaccommodating to be able to recognize and absorb the new designers

Una riflessione sul design tra continuità, discontinuità, evoluzione e permanenze
No full textStarting from the late sixties era of youth cultural rebellion, the text relates forty years of products have forged a new way of interacting with the expectations of an ever changing society. In this society, social issues and modern distribution systems merged and constantly changed means of distributing and marketing goods. From that era on, the shifting nature of these systems, tied to changing fashion and customs, forced us to dramatically change the basic tenets of making design. The solid functional, formal and economic mainstays of good design in the fifties gave way to an endless succession of changing methods and moved away from classic formal models. This brought about new brand concepts, as well as new lines of design investigation by individual designers and new group of designers. The divergences and mixing of cultures, the poetic use of technology, the design of events, the rise and fall of specialized design, political design and everyday design, the development of globalization and the “glocal”, new environmental awareness, the design of interface and the virtual; these are just a few of the issues that over the years have influenced the development of the formal and psychological aspect of contemporary products. They have informed a heterogeneous collection of new products and new style, defined by some pieces, which in their changeability, have became history-defining symbol and others that have become gadgets, passing fads
