Italy generally excels in design (that means culture, method and practice of project and production) in several fields like fashion, food and creativity applied to multiple activities, but in the toy and childcare productions Italian design has yet to play a key role in building a recognizable identity. The “Design System” and “System of Enterprise”, shows significant episodes but certainly not a coherent and recognizable oversight in children’s products, in furniture for children, in the game and in the toy sector. From this scenario it comes a need in poly-technical and multi-skill training. Designers and, in particular, strategic designers have the role of create scenarios understanding the many aspects and skills that compose the system.
If we think today about the “Design for Kids”, then we realize the number and type of skills needed to design a quality product aimed at the world of children. The Master aims to train professionals able to exploit all the potentials and opportunities of technology and markets, putting the child at the center of any design process and innovation.
The Master in Design for Kids & Toys is organized in partnership with Assogiocattoli, which represents Italian manufacturers and distributors working in this industry. Politecnico di Milano appears in QS World University Rankings by subject (Art & Design) as University: 1st in Italy, 3rd in Europe and 7th Worldwide. Besides, Milan is an international center of excellence for design. The cultural institutions, companies, publishing industries, fairs, showrooms, exhibitions and events that the city offers will enrich your education.
