“L’errore nella pratica e nella cultura del graphic design” is a research project that explores the role of error within visual culture and design practice, challenging the traditional notion of perfection often emphasized in design education.
Summary
Through a combination of historical analysis and interviews with contemporary designers, the project investigates how mistakes, failures, and deviations have influenced graphic styles and methods over time.
The main challenge was to rethink established design norms and present alternative narratives in a clear and engaging way.
The outcome is a comprehensive body of research that broadens the understanding of graphic design as a discipline, encouraging more open, experimental, and critical approaches — where error is seen not as a flaw, but as a potential source of creativity and insight.
