Riccardo BlumerIn his industrial design workshops Riccardo Blumer looks at ways to approach the skin of an object with the aim of understanding better its intrinsic features and encouraging a natural curiosity in design. As a result, very special objects are designed which are never manufactured, since they are items of pure research, the essential starting points of design. Edizioni Corraini. ISBN 9788875702090.
