Students from the Industrial Design
Department / Prof. Sefan Diez show FITTINGS AND JOINTS at an exhibition for this year’s Milan Design Week. A Selection
of the most evocative pieces will be shown in Studio Via Novi 2, Zona Tortona.
@tortonadesignweek @fuorisalone The
universal principle behind FITTINGS AND JOINTS plays a decisive role in almost every area of our daily lives. Frequently neglected
as a minor detail, these highly engineered, industrially manufactured elements are in fact crucial for the functionality and
appearance of the bigger structure they are a part of.FITTINGS AND JOINTS are the subject of a collaboration
between the market-leading hardware manufacturer BLUM and the Industrial Design Department of the University of Applied Arts
Vienna. Initiated by Stefan Diez as a kick-off for his tenure as Head of Design, the project saw students explore FITTINGS
AND JOINTS during the last six months across disciplines to capture a broader picture through the lens of the applied arts.
Highlighting the importance of these intersections and turning them into a testing ground for innovation.
@angewandte_idWe hope to see you there for the
preview & aperitivo on Monday, April 8th 2019 at 5 p.m. More
