These projects are Lignum Vitae by Inês Santana; Tavolo Pieghevole by Alvise Mori and Elizaveta Sergeeva; FEE-KA by Carolina Cerejo and Maria Monteiro; Little Circus by Catarina Saraiva; It's Time to Play by Márcia Gomes and Monique Vasconcelos; Poenceae by Maria Matos and Natália Pinheiro; and La Cabana by Rafaela Júlio and Carolina Michelotto.

This workshop was coordinated by Maria Milano - coordinator of the Master’s in Interior Design and curator of the Frontiere exhibition -, by guest designer Giulio Vinaccia and by the Social Carpentry Project K_Alma.

Civic City is an independent association involving a multidisciplinary international network of professionals: designers, architects, sociologists, political scientists, geographers, and a platform for knowledge exchange and common potential development.

Schools from Switzerland, Canada, Spain, Lebanon, France, Tunisia, Colombia, USA, Cuba, Germany, Madagascar, India and Poland will also participate in this international exhibition.
