The design discipline with its methodology and approaches can represent a solution for the valorisation of the material culture of a specific territory (De Giorgi, 2008; Catania, 2011)

Department of RSD7 - Systemic design for territorial development: ecosystem to support autopoietic local economies - Battistoni, Barbero ARCHITECTURE AND DESIGN IF we look at their production model and the territory where they are located with a systemic approach

Department of RSD7 - Systemic design for territorial development: ecosystem to support autopoietic local economies - Battistoni, Barbero ARCHITECTURE AND DESIGN shifting the attention from the single actors to the relationships that can be created among them, is possible to obtain di erent results, as the theory of system suggests: “the whole is GREATER than the sum of its parts” (Aristotle)

or better “the whole is OTHER than the sum of its parts” from Gestalt (Koffka)

Department of RSD7 - Systemic design for territorial development: ecosystem to support autopoietic local economies - Battistoni, Barbero ARCHITECTURE AND DESIGN systemic thinking applied to - the project (design process) - manufacturing sector (production process)

SYSTEMIC DESIGN

The borders of the traditional design discipline are enlarged by the Systemic Design (SD) (Bistagnino, 2011) which produce a step forward the eco-design
