exhibition
design co-vision
the magic of light science
The Design Co-Vision program aims to explore the potential intersections between design, optical physics, light sciences, astrophysics, and art, focusing on vision and optical phenomena across various scales, from the cosmic to the nanometric dimensions. Young designers enrolled in the international Master's Degree program in Design for the Built Environment (DBE) at the Department of Architecture, University of Naples Federico II, had the opportunity to collaborate with internationally renowned scientists from various fields of physics, professional designers, and artists . Together, they developed projects in product design, digital design, and exhibit design, investigating the connections between these disciplines. Topics included optical illusions, visual perception, solar particles and magnetic fields, thermal shields, auroras, solar spectropolarimetry, and cosmic geometries. The activities took place from April to June 2024 at the Città della Scienza and the Department of Architecture at Federico II University. These efforts will culminate in a series of exhibitions and conferences to be held at partner institutions during 2024/2025 and as part of the XXXVIII edition of Futuro Remoto CO-SCIENZE.
