The supermarket of future
2020
As the last trends demonstrate, the supermarket of the near future will change face. Here, we will find only high-quality products, belonging to the category of ‘fresh’ and purchasable by smartphone. The packaged products, belonging to the category of ‘dry’, will be more conveniently purchasable on-line. Therefore, cash-registers and the areas before cash-registers will disappear at the entrance and the exit of supermarket. And most of physical space of the today supermarket will be useless. Here is the problem – nowadays the space ingeniously designed of the area before cash-register yields 30% of the whole profit of the supermarket, thank to the irrational buying. How will the supermarket…
New digital trends in current architecture. A comprehensive critical examination
2017
The research presented is about digital revolution in architecture, which has contributed to the birth of new figurative trends. The work was conducted through the definition of a framework to identify and classify architectural design elements that should be attributed to the methods and techniques of design computing, then applied to sixty prominent recent architectures which are acknowledged products of digital means. The early results suggest that a new era is coming, where the conceptual starting point of designers is often born in the digital space, taking advantage of the augmented representation skills to control and manipulate form. We will also do an overview of these new architec…
POSSIBILITY OF THE USAGE OF THE VISUAL RESEARCH METHODS WITHIN THE DESIGN EDUCATION
2017
Young people are forming and will form the environment of today and tomorrow. This reinforces the necessity of the young generation’s active involvement in the promotion of positive change. This approach cannot be otherwise as systemic and impossible without research and data analysis. Visual research methods, which are self-evident in design and art, are widely used in a number of other disciplines. To achieve an objective and reliable results, they often are combined with quantitative, analytic, generative and other methods. The aim of the paper - to discuss the ways of visual research methods' use in combination with systemic design thinking approach in finding new solutions in promotion…
THE IMPORTANCE OF THE PARADIGM SHIFT IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF DESIGN INDUSTRY AND DESIGN EDUCATION
2015
Literature about design development and the current situation of the essence of trends in this field allow for the defining of design as an independent branch. Analysis of design and education regulations highlights the conflict between reality and gaps that exist in European statistical standards and International Standard Classification of Education. The purpose of this study is to explore complex problems in the field of design and design education which determines the need for Paradigm Shift for further development of these branches, as well as to present proposals for definitions of key terms of design and offer proposals for a new design education classification. This research will sh…
Digital expressionism: the architecture of complex shapes: multi-case analysis, classification and interpretation
2013
The research presented is about digital revolution in architecture, due to the entry of computing in a design development, which has contributed to the birth of a new figurative trend, we can call Digital Expressionism. The work was conducted through the definition of a framework to identify and classify architectural design elements that should be attributed to the methods and techniques of design computing, then applied to sixty prominent recent buildings which are acknowledged products of digital means. The early results suggest that a new era is coming, where the conceptual starting point of designers is often born in the digital space, taking advantage of the augmented representation s…
Digital revolution in current architecture: towards a new architectural expressivity
2013
The triumphal entry of computing in architectural design has produced a real revolution in architectural scenario, but, until now it is unclear how we can identify digital influences in each project and how they have contributed to the birth of new expressive trends. We have developed a framework for identifying and classifying architectural design elements that should be attributed to the methods and techniques of design computing. This framework is then applied to sixty prominent recent buildings which are acknowledged products of digital means. The goals of this are, firstly, to verify the applicability of the descriptive framework and, secondly, to identify combinations of elements that…
DIGITAL BANKING. A CURRENT DILEMMA SOLVED THROUGH THE DESIGN THINKING METHOD
2020
More natural than analytical thinking, design thinking provides solutions to common dilemmas. Fundamentally, it is a human centered and collaborative approach. It all starts with empathy, through the help of a deep research. Furthermore, banking success resides from understanding customers, not exclusively from profits. It is necessary to figure out human thinking, the needs and desires of customers, in order to have a portfolio of appropriate products and services. This is where success comes from. Having this desideratum, the paper analyzes the characteristics of the design thinking method and the digital elements that appear in the banking sector. Certainly, the biggest challenges in the…
Vista e visione dell'architetto
2015
Il paper affronta il tema del'atto del vedere dell'architetto in chiave fenomenolgica ma anche affrontando l'intreccio tra cecità e vista a partire dalle riflessioni di Derrida. Il concetto di Design Thinking viene proposto, con riferimento al noto Visual Thinking di Rudolf Arnheim. Si può ipotizzare un modo di vedere specifico degli architetti nel quale immaginazione e visione di fondono e sovrappongono a partire dalla memoria. Lo schematismo di Kant, ripreso con riferimento all'arte e all'architettura, da Cesare Brandi costituisce la teoria-chiave per la quale visione e immaginazione possono essere concepite come risvolti del medesimo concetto. La cecità, intesa come luogo altro della vis…
