The Italian Design School is an institution based on the web, whose courses are designed to meet advanced training and to help companies for achieving prosumer' needs. Our Mission is to use the great beauty of Italian Design, from its origins three thousand years ago, to the present day, developed in the most beautiful country all around the world. Our vision is to add up new and innovative technologies to harmony and unity, to build together an environment of life and work more and more in keeping with man. Our main tools are Cognitive Ergonomics, Industrial Design and the Sciences of Communication. “Cognitive Ergonomics” helps the designer to improve his own skills in order to define the real needs of customers, “Industrial Design” allows to establish the appropriate interfaces man-object-environment and to industrialize the product/service and the “Sciences of Communication”, with a smart use of ICT, help to properly and effectively communicate the artifacts to the market. This is our great challenge for developing a neo-humanism, supported by technologies, that could help man in the pursuit of his own happiness.

We organize and support University courses in Russia, China, Argentina and Cuba.

FERRARI Daytona SP3

The Ferrari Daytona SP3’s design is a harmonious interplay of contrasts, sublimely sculptural, voluptuous surfaces alternating with the kind of sharper lines that revealed the burgeoning importance of aerodynamics in the design of racers such as the 330 P4, 350 Can-Am and 512 S. The chassis is built entirely from composite materials using Formula 1 technologies and the seat is an integral part of the chassis to reduce weight and guarantee the driver a driving position similar to that of a competition car. Lastly, just like the cars that inspired it, the aerodynamic research and design focused on achieving maximum efficiency purely using passive aero solutions. Thanks to unprecedented features, such as chimneys that extract low-pressure air from the underbody, the Ferrari Daytona SP3 is the most aerodynamically efficient car ever built by Ferrari without resorting to active aero devices. Because of the clever integration of these technical innovations, the car can accelerate from zero to 100km/h in 2.85s and from zero to 200km/h in just 7.4s: exhilarating performance, an extreme set-up, and the intoxicating V12 soundtrack deliver completely unparalleled driving pleasure.

Design

The etymology of the noun “design” is from the ancient Latin de+signum; “de-“, which means “out” and “signum”, which means “mark, sign”. So, the meaning of design is “to mark out", in other words, e.g., “to draw lines around (something) so that it can be clearly seen” (by Merriam-Webster Dictionary).

The Italian Design School is a virtual institution on the web. Its headquarters are inside a blue cloud, that is flying over Italy.

Woolen Mill Paoletti “Lanificio Paoletti” since 1795

In the romantic Follina, a jewel of industrial archeology hosts one of the oldest Italian wool mills, manufacturer of exclusive fabrics for the coolest fashion brands on earth: Armani, Chanel, Lanvin, Valentino just to name a few…Founded in 1795 and owned by the same family for 10 generations to date, the factory has really made history by surviving the arrival of Napoleon, going through two world wars and “defeating” the advent of synthetic fibers, always true to the greatest respect and love for the ancient wool weaving art. Today, the Paoletti family continues to search for the best raw materials (such as Mohair, Cashmere, but also the Alpagota sheep from Veneto), using the best and most traditional techniques in order to take the “fiber art” to the highest level of craftsmanship.
