Diego grandi: design with care – on nature, people, time and emotion

On the occasion of Moscow Worldwide Fair Diego Grandi has been invited by the organization authority, Cosmit, to hold a master class about “Design with care – on nature, people, time and emotion”.


Starting from the theme indicated, the designer will summarize his own route through a selection of his works showing a particular attention to contemporary time, meant as a careful look to the present.

Within this story some projects underline very sensitive themes as well as social and political issues that Diego Grandi would like to point out: the designer’s role within his own ethical route, showing through objects.

Another element to analyse has to do with habits and behaviours: nomadism will be in fact considered in its wider meaning. Objects, places and gestures change point of reference to create more flexible and, therefore, more suitable places to be experienced moment by moment.The picture will be completed by other designers’ products relating to these themes. The DGO’s projects showing will be:

• XXX form Milano (2006)
• City Streets (2008)
• Showroom Milano (2010) - Lea Ceramiche
• Le Module (2002) – Jannelli & Volpi
• Lullaby (2007) – Andreoli Corian

• Sunday at the Race (2010) Scuola Politecnica di Design
