Retrobottega: Open Call

Sfuso and Raminga invites designers, architects, craftsmen, students and professionals to present their work during Milan Design Week in the spaces offered by Ferramenta Pietro Viganò.

Retrobottega: Open Call
Sfuso Collective together with Raminga presents the second edition edition of Retrobottega Open Design Call.
Aim of Retrobottega is to investigate possible responses in order to survive contemporaneity; given certainties, as livable spaces, wealth, easy access to goods and services,  or the right to a satisfying sociality are nowadays constricted by the insatiable intrusiveness of necessity. In such a context the designer should go back to the immediacy of necessary things, things that do not need any justification, things that are made for life.

Through Retrobottega, Sfuso wants to develop the survival issue as a spatial, economical and social fact. We're looking for survival devices and practices that face the problem in an innovative way: from systems for food and energy production to mobility devices, from spatial construction practices to tools and object for living, up to new instruments for the everyday life. A singular synergy between design culture, practical know-how, modern resources offered by new technologies, together with traditional manufacturing, a DIY attitude and the ability to work as wasteless as  possible must be the key factor of these researches.
