Museo del Design italiano Guida

curated by Joseph Grima

Museo del Design italiano

The guidebook begins with 28 explanations narrated by designers of works in the Collection. The peculiarity of the interviews is that they were all conducted by telephone, taking a cue from Vico Magistretti’s comment: “I like concept design, the kind which is so clear you do not need to draw it. I have passed on plenty of my projects over the phone.” This also prompted the often relaxed, unprompted and “live” tenor of the texts.

They are followed by a summary of the works on display in the Triennale Museo del Design Italiano in chronological order. Forty-two of these are also accompanied by a brief account of their concept, history and materials.
