What does design have to do with the historical, political, cultural, social and economic events that marked the sixties and seventies in Italy and around the world? The answer is: everything. In this episode we talk about some figures that have left their mark on the history of Italian design: Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni, Vico Magistretti, Bruno Munari, Gaetano Pesce, Riccardo Dalisi and Enzo Mari. Each one, in its own way, triggered a reflection on the role of design, its possibilities and the usefulness of its inclusion in the social context. Always trying to involve the collective and awaken people's creative instincts. Through some words such as irony, functionality, commitment, self-design, and research. This was how bicycle seats, tractor chairs, armchairs that took the shape of the female body and furniture that people built themselves with nails and a hammer burst their way into living rooms. The creator of this episode is Damiano Gullì, with interviews with Giovanna Castiglioni, Beppe Finessi, Francesca Giacomelli and Marco Romanelli.
