“…The design discipline has confirmed its strategic role in innovation creation development with many contributions (Bertola & Teixeira, 2003;Brown, 2009;Celaschi & Deserti, 2007;Franzato & Celaschi, 2017). Moreover, its potential has been shown in the valorisation of the local material culture to increase the value of a certain territory, as stated by many Italian scholars (Bozzola & De Giorgi, 2016;Catania, 2011). Designers are also questioning their role in sustainability because the decisions taken in the design phase can contribute to the ecological cost of the product (McBride, 2011;Valade-Amland, 2011).…”

The current global environmental situation, with its interconnected problems, requires holistic approaches to provide a cultural paradigm shift and a different economy to overcome the linear one. Systemic Design (SD) can represent a solution creating opportunities for eco- and system innovation, especially in the manufacturing sector, which will soon face a revolution in the production model. Thus, SD can help achieve environmental and economic sustainability at the local level. A multiple case study analysis on SD projects was developed to understand the significant eco-entrepreneurial opportunities that have emerged and the barriers for their implementation. Finally, an ecosystem is designed to foster systemic innovation based on helix innovation models and identify the facilitator for its creation, namely, the ‘local systemic network booster’.

“…As a sub-category of cultural heritage goods, products and services with promotional and commercial purposes, with strategic lines, designed to add value to visiting exhibitions or museums, are defined as museum merchandise [2].It can be both a commodity in itself and educational and carries the value of culture. In many cases, people buy it in museum gift shops, where it takes on the function of extending and enhancing the experience [7]. Some people buy museum cultural products as souvenirs, symbolic reminders described as metaphors for events, places, or experiences, full of meaning and consequences [10].…”

“…but rather deepen this possibility. People are interested in merchandising products beyond the privilege of being just a commercial asset but as part of an overall experience [7]. It is therefore worth looking at how museums can be branded through marketing and how their cultural heritage can be better merchandised to capture audiences.…”

“…Design and craftsmanship are what create the champions of materiality and beauty in culture. They combine thought and production, ideas and products, and can achieve this relatively quickly [7], design creates more ways to play with and value for museum merchandise, and well-designed cultural heritage products which present communicable cultural content and make it recognizable and also represent the background from which it origins and may also have a playful dimension. At the same time, these products have additional functions, just as after being taken home, they may continue to narrate the experience of the visit and expand it [2].…”

The cultural and creative industries and the massive dissemination of information in the age of digital media provide new vehicles for the transmission and expression of cultural heritage and use the language of design to capture people's sensibilities, express cultural connotations, and bring the value of history to audiences through new media. Museums, as institutions of culture collection and dissemination, also want to increase their visibility by creating their brand. At the same time, as an important part of urban tourism, museum branding is also conducive to enhancing people's understanding and identification with local culture. For museums, the merchandising and branding of museum-based cultural heritage is an important part of museum marketing, in which museums' cultural heritage design products also tend to function as both consumer promotion and cultural expression. This paper is a literature review using methods that include analysis of literature database platforms and interdisciplinary research and discusses the impact of product design on the branding of museums' cultural heritage. Focusing on the relationship between museum branding and communication with audiences, as well as further study of dialectical thinking on the cultural dimensions of museum product expression, thus identifying key knowledge and research processes in this area.

The need to restore the former industrial factories so as not to leave the buildings and the neighborhood in a state of neglect has attracted scholarly and popular attention. The following contribution aims to highlight how designers can contribute to the repurposing of buildings by paying attention to the end user and planning new experiences and activities by reading case studies of industrial conversion of production sites into cultural hubs. The company’s history, intrinsically linked to the territory, and its products, are the protagonists of the reconversion so as not to forget the past local productive culture demonstrating how it is possible to generate new and different economies from before. The case studies tell the story of the industrial conversion of companies and mines in urban and decentralized areas to get a representative look at the Italian and European territories.
