Park Associati invites Francesco Faccin to present the talk "Design is a pretext".

‘Is design a medium or a purpose?’ Ranging from industrial design to craftsmanship, from self-production to social design, Faccin will demonstrate how design can be a powerful tool to understand and transform reality.

Francesco Faccin is a designer who explores industrial design, craftsmanship, self-production, social design, and limited editions for galleries. He views design as a powerful tool for understanding and shaping reality, connecting diverse disciplines, and addressing contemporary issues. After working with Enzo Mari and gaining expertise in fine woodworking with Francesco Rivolta, he opened his Milan studio in 2007. Alongside collaborations with companies and artisans, Faccin teaches at universities, including the Free University of Bolzano, and has received numerous awards for his innovative work.
