Excellence for the Future: Meet the Red Design Lab. This innovative collaboration between the Design Campus of the University of Florence and Baldi will explore new methods of combining traditional knowledge and contemporary technologies in craftsmanship and the artisan sector. The project aims to protect traditional artisan techniques and to develop new objects using modern creativity. A three-dimensional scanner provided by Baldi will enable the process to be reversed in order to be conserved: the scanner will analyse finished products, reconstructing the artisans’ process of work and creating a database of patterns and materials.
