Overall objectives:

1 - Design and anthropology are new interactions to think the social and cultural space. Space and territories aims to put into discussion the possibility of a productive dialogue between these two disciplines in academic terms, whether in professional practice. Some approaches of these disciplines have a common factor: understanding the material, social and cultural logic of the social groups studied, even the logic of change and innovations that emerge from a society or that are necessary to it. This explains the designers ' interest in anthropology in recent decades.
