IDI ZERO1 e ZERO2 - A new concept of motorcycle helmet

IDI zero2
IDI zero1































Le calotte dei caschi IDI Zero1 e Zero2 sono due, sovrapposte (calotta interna e gabbia esterna), aumentando in questo modo la resistenza e l'aerazione del casco. Il grintoso e colorato spider esterno protegge le foratura della calotta interna dagli agenti esterni e aumenta la resistenza del casco. Lo spider, in policarbonato colorato in pasta, ha anche funzione antigraffio ed è disponibile in diversi colori.
Entrambi i modelli IDI potranno essere customizzati dal rivenditore “just in time” al momento dell'acquisto, montando lo spider del colore desiderato dal motociclista. L'operazione è talmente semplice che potrà essere ripetuta più volte, dallo stesso motociclista, per cambiare look al proprio casco in ogni momento.
Inoltre Tutti i modelli IDI sono predisposti per l'uso del nuovo dispositivo IDIPHONE (Bluetooth Integrated System) - brevetto internazionale Newmax. Questo speciale intercomunicatore permette l'uso semplice e immediato del proprio cellulare, o altri dispositivi bluetooth, anche durante la guida.
Una volta alloggiato nella Tasca, l'IDIPHONE si attiva automaticamente..
Il casco non ha bisogno di cablaggi, collegamenti, altoparlanti, nulla..............

Recensione su Motorsport

The IDI helmets shields are two, overlapped (inner shields and outer cage), increasing the resistance and the ventilation of the helmet. The gritty and colorful spider protects the inner shield from the external agents and increases the resistance of the helmet. The spider, in colored polycarbonate, also protect from scratch and is available in several colors.
Both models IDI can be customized by the dealer "just in time" at the time of mounting the spider in the color desired by the costumer. The operation is so simple that can be repeated several times by the same customer to change look of his helmet at all times.
All models also IDI are predisposed to use the new device IDIPHONE (Bluetooth Integrated System) - an international patent Newmax. This special intercom allows easy and immediate use of your phone or other bluetooth devices, even while driving. Once seated in the pocket, the IDIPHONE activates automatically ..
The helmet does not need wiring, connection, speakers, nothing ..............

The Ñandeva














Ñandeva is an crafts expansion program that aims the strengthen of a three-frontier borders identity ( in the border region between Argentina, Brazil and Paraguay) through the insertion of
elements and icons that forward to these peoples culture. In a constant dialogue between designers and craftsmen, the products are developed with the intention of generating income and opportunity to the producers' community. Thanks to Malba Aguilar and Juan Sotuyo idealism, the program was born in 2004, during the first Crafts and design Workshop, from which resulted many works with great esthetic and cultural value. Then, it was born the seed of what would become the current program, consolidated after the execution of a three-frontier-border director plan, accomplished in February, 2006.

Giulio and Valerio Vinaccia, are authors of the book “Iconographic Elements of the Triple Frontier Region” and advisors to Ñadeva since the beginning of the program.
The book “Iconographic Elements of the Triple Border” is the result of a study carried out by anthropologists and historians, who identified typical elements of the region. With this data, a group of designers, under the supervision of Giulio Vinaccia, visited 28 municipalities in the Tri-border area in order to collect images of the elements. The work resulted in an image database with about five thousand pictures, which was the basis for the creation of the first 450 symbols that define the region.
Now, all icons are available in the 832 pages of the two volume book. Divided into eight chapters (colonization, architecture, Guarani people, Jesuit missions, flora and fauna, arts, tourism and
geography), the book provides information on the meaning of each icon and suggestions of applications for handicraft.

San Marino Design Week

San Marino University of Design

Democratic Design, that promotes the analysis of the original material cultures as a starting point for the development of newtypologies of objects.
The goal is to rediscover and to preserve techniques, expressions and local traditions starting from an idea of design as a democratic action that allows poor communities to access to free and voluntary consultation of international experts. The activity of design through creative workshops goes beyond the classical isolation of the handicraft communities making possible a comparison between them, the surrounding nations and with the people of the whole world, making them visible and therefore “defensible” (communities disappear every year and nobody knows). The project develops through an iconographic research that identifies expressions and peculiarity of the culture at stake, to translate them in a basic bidimensional and three - dimensional material, on the base of which the propositions will develop.

Torino 2008 World Design Capital

Torino Geodesign Project

A project and competition, Torino Geodesign is first and foremost an idea which defines an extraordinarily large and productive field of action: self-determined design, produced in limited series by communities inside huge globalised metropolises.

Project: Packaging for food / Peruvians communities.
On weekends, inhabitants of Peruvian origin gather in the Parco della Pellerina, where they cook and share traditional Peruvian dishes. The project calls for creating and commercializing packaging for this food.
