“Valcucine Scenario”: workshops in collaboration with Domus Academy and ISIA institutes

Together with the results of the company's in-house , Valcucine at , also presents the results of externals labs including significant bodies connected to the world, such as the Domus Academy International Design School and ISIA (public university design institute).  

Linked to the official theme of Fuorisalone.it “Laboratorio Futuro“, we wanted to emphasise the importance of confrontation and imagination to build alternative ideas through moments of collective dialogue, in order to focus on opportunities and criticalities, but also contradictions that the future brings with it.

Laboratory is therefore understood as a shared working method, as a way to build solutions in the present to allow us a future.

Therefore, at the 2023, besides our main laboratory “Ecosophìa“, namely our new portfolio of installed in and innovative architectures, we are presenting also “Valcucine scenario”.

Thus, Genius Loci confirms itself as a means of enhancing the type of craftsmanship Italian culture was – and continues to be – famous for by wisely managing values, techniques and aesthetics.
