Curiosity is the engine of human evolution. From the discovery of natural phenomena to continuous innovation, our ability to ask questions and seek answers has made us a migrating and visionary species. We explore the unknown, develop new ideas, and constantly redefine the boundaries of knowledge. Curiosity is also crucial in design: for Michele De Lucchi, it is an essential ingredient that fuels his research and experimentation, leading him to always create something new.

Curiosity-driven questions to address in the session:

●  Is curiosity more reliable than answers?

●  What if the unexpected were the most faithful part of the project?

●  How much of the extraordinary truly comes from what we plan?

●  Can the answer arrive just as we’re thinking about the wrong question?

●  How do we recognize wonder even before we see it?
