GOALS
The special editions of the Resign Academy will be strongly characterized by the locations that will host them. For the first edition “Cascina Granbergo”, in Maddalena di Sassello, Colla 3, located in the natural reserve of Monte Beigua in Savona’s province, has been the choice for the “house- laboratory”.
The designers Giovanni Delvecchio, Andrea Magnani and Elisabetta Amatori (founders of the Resign “meta project”), will propose an inovative teaching, founded on the hand-crafted “know how” together with a series of direct lessons that will range from “contemporary mithology”, to new symbolism, and to “Design 2.0”.
The final goal of the academy of Sassello will be to realize, through the Resign methodology, a real project based on the material that will be supplied by the woods next to the farm. The students will then be invited to expose and sell their works during a permanent exhibition kept in the farm and the outback. They will manifacture at least one object each, and will keep complete property, (intellectual and material), of their own creations. Every participant will be able to expose their work on www.resign.it and become an active member of the site. Read HERE about the past edition and watch HERE the works gallery.

DIDACTICS
The first special edition of the Resign Academy is structured in three levels.
1. The teachment will consist in analysing materials, idea labs, discussions and brainstorming. Everything finalized to stimulate first, and define later the design concepts.
2. The creative labs will be integrated by the technical labs, where the project will take life, solving any crafting issue.
3. The partecipants will continue their journey in the labs finishing their works.
The didactics have a “on field” formation model and a au pair relationship between the teachers and the partecipants. The classes will take place predominantly in the outdoor labs, but head-on lessons and evening encounters will be scheduled.
