Abstract
Design, as an approach to action, is always placing itself within the track of innovation, between material and immaterial matters, product and service. Nevertheless, Design was never built from a clear and defined field, as a starting point. Rather its framing as a discipline has been historicized and “hardened” over years, in parallel with several disciplines. Through this ongoing evolution we can see a clearly and recognizably a “disciplined” theoretical apparatus.
