Prototypes and Exhibit
Resulting from the recent integration of the services of the Prototypes Lab and the Exhibits Lab, it is an area dedicated to design, realisation and experimentation in the field of interior and industrial product design. The student in the Laboratory faces both the spatial context of domestic, commercial, exhibition, business and transport spaces, as well as the realisation of models and prototypes for design and industry, without forgetting the artistic sphere. The Laboratory, supporting students and didactic courses, combines traditional craftsmanship and the latest prototyping technologies.
