This is research by people, about people, for people.
It speaks of design, of Milan, and of oral histories.
It draws on 8. the protagonists of the places we explore and recount; on the voices heard in preliminary interviews and in the podcast; and on the work of a broad, diverse team of researchers, weaving together viewpoints, methods, and expertise. The result is a mosaic of perspectives that brings the city’s living fabric into focus. Below, the people who made it possible.
