NATIONAL ARTS AWARD 2023 XVII EDITION
DESIGN SECTION
The National Arts Award is conceived as a possible and desirable opportunity for meeting and exchanging ideas among institutions within the AFAM system on social, economic, technological, and environmental issues in contemporary design and education.
Students and teachers will have the opportunity to engage in discussions about visions, imaginaries, and possible horizons, thanks to the projects proposed by participating institutions.
Through this initiative, ISIA Roma Design aims to address contemporary themes and, using system design methodologies, integrate multiple design aspects such as hospitality, inclusion, innovation, and sustainability.
Participation in this initiative represents a valuable experience for the participating students and makes a significant contribution to their education.
