UNIT 3 – COMMUNICATION VALUES

Communication is today undoubtedly one of the main areas of interest of Design: the object of this study will therefore not only be a coordinated image, not only communication through new digital channels and creativity at the service of online marketing, but also the basic tools for a sociology of consumption and for the development of a small autonomous project in the field of communication for luxury under the supervision of the teachers of the Politecnico.
