The Master's Course in Sensibility Design for Eco-Footprint at the University of Florence intends to offer new professional stimuli and direction towards new soft skills in the field of design with character to transversal competences for systems and products with high ecological sensitivity.
A course organised with multidisciplinary knowledge and expertise structured to train a professional figure capable of overcoming and giving appropriate specificity to the current roles of assistant, consultant, prescriber as a medium between technological innovations and design.
A subtle but substantial way of addressing contemporary and future issues of design for man and planet
The Master's course intends to meet the growing demand to qualify and give recognisable professional skills in kjmodo well distinguishable from the relationship and project assistance roles practised today with spontaneous and voluntary training.
On the part of the companies, the need is becoming more evident to have as interlocutors, between the production system and the designers, some specific figures with very particular and above all very qualified knowledge who can direct the information in both output and input directions between the company and the world of finishing product applications to the best end.
The Master's training objectives are:
Furniture design / Interior design / Exhibition design / Environment design / Interaction design / Lighting design / Product ecology design / Sensorial design / CMF design / Surface design.
A professional profile with a co-creation and design role in companies with a high-quality range and green-oriented companies for the valorisation of resources and the recovery or alternative energy production. This professional figure will be able to work within companies in the industrial product sector, innovative materials, textures and finishes, lighting control and research into the sensorial expressiveness of bio-eco materials, and in professional studios and technical offices in public administration. In the professional studios of industrial design, museum and event design, he will cover the role of designing and directing the technical choices appropriate to the expressive and perceptive results to be obtained. While in professional architectural firms, he/she will support the architectural design of residential, commercial, public, recreational and sports buildings concerning the energy savings obtainable from finishes and for the activation of integrated passive systems for energy production.
