“…(1) Milan has a long tradition as a "self-governing city," a city in which the role of private actors (both profit and non-profit), as well as of higher education and cultural institutions has always been as important as that of Local Authorities in setting the urban agenda and in implementing urban projects (Balducci, 2003;Balducci et al, 2011;Galimberti, 2013) (2) Milan shows, at the same time, an increasing trend in the demand and supply of economic and social innovation (Comune di Milano, Fondazione Brodolini, 2016)…”

The present paper investigates the location patterns and the effects coworking spaces generate on the urban context, issues that have been neglected by the existing literature. The focus is on Milan, the core of the Italian knowledge-based, creative, digital, and sharing economy, and the city hosting the largest number of coworking spaces in Italy. The paper addresses three main questions: (1) Where are the main locations of coworking spaces in Milan? (2) Are there any transformative effects of coworking spaces, respectively at the urban scale and at the very local scale?(3) What are their impacts in terms of spatial transformation and in terms of innovation in practices (for instance, work, leisure, or culture)? Desk research showed that location patterns of coworking spaces resemble those of service industries in urban areas, with a propinquity to the so-called "creative clusters." Field research shed light on urban effects, such as the participation of workers in coworking spaces in local community initiatives, their contribution to urban revitalization trends, and micro-scale physical transformations. The paper, therefore, helps to fill the gap in the literature about the location patterns of these new working spaces and their urban effects at different scales, both in terms of urban spaces and practices.

“…Faced with the crisis described above, however, fear seems to be prevailing. As predicted (Heidegger, 2007), The Promethean myth faltered (Anders, 2002;Galimberti, 1999;Latour, 2014) and the optimism normally associated with technical progress (Simondon, 1989) is giving way to pessimism, skepticism, and cynicism (Jonas, 2006;Engelhardt, 1996). How to design today?…”

This paper presents the conceptual underpinnings organized by a group of designers and design researchers for the creation of the Ecotopias Socioenvironmental Design Laboratory at PUC-Rio University. It begins by discussing the anthropogenic crisis, which the planet is currently facing, and the consequent design crisis. It also presents the field of design for sustainability, its transversality and eco-logic possibilities. It situates the process of constructing scenarios in this field as a methodological option for opening the imaginative and anticipatory potential of art and design to confront the planetary environmental crises and regenerate ecologies of the mind, social relations, and the environment. It describes the methodological steps of the scenario-building process derived from the project Sustainable Everyday, and, finally, it distinguishes the concepts of utopia and ecotopia.

“…Como preanunciado, o mito prometeico vacilou (Anders, 2002;Galimberti, 1999;Latour, 2014) e o otimismo depositado no progresso técnico (Simondon, 1989) cede o passo para o pessimismo, o ceticismo e o cinismo (Jonas, 2006;Engelhardt, 1996). Como fazer design hoje?…”

Esta contribuição tem o objetivo de apresentar as bases projetuais organizadas por um grupo de designers e pesquisadores em design, para a constituição do laboratório de design socioambiental Ecotopias, hospedado na PUC-Rio. Como ponto de partida, discute a crise planetária, de origem antrópica, e a consequente crise projetual. Apresenta o campo do design para a sustentabilidade, sua transversalidade e eco-lógicas possíveis. Situa o processo de construção de cenários nesse campo, como opção metodológica para disponibilizar o potencial imaginativo e antecipatório do design e das artes, no enfrentamento da crise planetária e na regeneração das ecologias da mente, das relações sociais e do meio ambiente. Descreve os movimentos metodológicos do processo de construção de cenários, a partir da experiência de pesquisa e projeto Sustainable Everyday, chegando a distinguir os conceitos de utopia e ecotopia.
