A letto con il design : Design Hostel

A letto con il Design illustrates the works exhibited in the homonymous exhibition, set up during the Milano Design Week 2017 in the “Design Hostel”. But this book is far more than a catalog: it is an essay on the state of the art of relationship between design and industry 4.0, the world of makers and fablabs. The unprecedented exhibition model, which ironically combines a “pop up hostel” and a “inhabited exhibition”, introduces a reflections on new models of hospitality and exhibition. All this takes place in a nascent innovation district. It was therefore necessary to reflect on what “innovation” means today. The red thread running through the pages leads us to think about the potentialities of the contamination between analog and digital. This book, produced both analogically and digitally, is just a small demonstration of the potential of this relationship.
