Collaborative design

COLLABORATIVE DESIGN

The collaborative design recognizes the expertise of users by understanding their direct experience as a form of complementary knowledge to the technical knowledge of designers, architects and makers. From this symmetry of positions, we promote collaborative and user design for the creation of socio-material devices, strategies and content for social communication. We understand the design – whatever the medium – as an open and experimental process where, from a critical and situated research and the prototyping of ideas, we can reach a conceptual materialization for “creating worlds”.

- Development of communication strategies, device production and content development.
- Coordination and development of participatory and user design projects.
- Prototyping processes and conceptual materialization.
- Graphic design and layout services.
