Design per Tutti, the Exhibition Dedicated to Design Enlivens the Evenings of Valletta Brianza
Large turnout of the public in the four meetings of Design per Tutti, the cycle of free lessons which in 2024 returned for 4 evenings in May to address the dualism between the material and immaterial world with numerous guests from different disciplines. From fashion to neuroarchitecture, passing through the world of food and cinema, the speakers’ testimonies sparked the curiosity of spectators, simple enthusiasts of the subject as well as professionals in the world of architecture and design.
The Evenings Dedicated to Material and Immaterial
The first meeting saw the journalist Guia Rossi introduce the concept of Artificial Intelligence in the world of fashion, bringing guests into the dimension of the metaverse and delving into the themes of blockchain and NFTs applied to fashion.
Afterwards, the architect and stylist Sofia Alemani accompanied the audience to discover the material world of fabrics with a group creative workshop.
In the second meeting, the architect and neuroscience researcher Federica Sanchez showed the study and design implications of neuroarchitecture, through case studies created with Lombardini22.
Andrea Meregalli, eclectic architect and artist, showed works, events and installations where Artificial Intelligence merges with design and architecture, and then talked about his artworks.
The evening dedicated to Hyperfood opened with the touching testimony of Hooman Soltani, architect and chef who arrived in Italy from Iran and today represnts Persian cuisine in Italy. Following, the food & beverage expert Penelope Vaglini talked about the origin of multisensory experiences at the table through the work of great chefs and scientists, up to today’s applications of Artificial Intelligence to optimize and make production safer in the agrifood industry. Finally, Davide Marzullo Executive Chef for Trattoria Contemporanea, a Michelin star restaurant, brought guests the testimony of his cuisine and the tasting of one of his dishes.
The conclusion of the series of Design per Tutti lessons was entrusted to Annachiara Ferrero, art expert and curator, and the director Roberto Delvoi, who explored the old and new frontiers of cinema, from the material dimension governed by Artificial Intelligence, increasingly useful for simplifying and speeding up the work of sector workers.
Massimo Gianquitto’s Comments
“The series of meetings that we proposed for the Design per Tutti 2024 edition, through the words of our speakers, convinced us that there is no clear boundary between the material and the immaterial (theme of this edition), the concrete and imaginary, the reality and the imagination. Precisely from this observation we need to decode and interpret the signals that are already bringing radical changes in our lives”, declared Massimo Gianquitto, CEO of Level Office Landscape and creator of the lectures open to the public. “All this must lead us to rethink about the value of people and empathy, before machines and technology”.
The appointment with Design for Tutti is renewed for the 2025 season, with an exciting new theme that will be revealed very soon. Follow the Level Office Landscape social channels to not miss any of the cultural initiatives promoted by Massimo Gianquitto and the communications team.
