Introduction

With my project I would like to test and experiment an approach to graphic design strongly based on collaboration.

▪ Can we apply the principles of peer-to-peer practices to graphic design? ▪ Can this kind of approach be alternative to the traditional design process? ▪ Which kind of advantages this kind of approach would give?

I want to show how using a peer-to-peer collaboration in a design group is not only possible but would also be significant in order to develop a wider range of alternatives result and it would give a better outcome since it satisfies the needs of a critical group of persons and not only an individual.

More in detail I'll start analyzing the traditional graphic design process, looking at each phase to understand how collaborative they are. Then I'll try to introduce a new kind of collaboration based on a peer-to-peer approach. Later I'll develop a methodology and a toolkit based on it in order to maximize the effect of this new kind of collaboration. This methodology and the toolkit will be tested in a series of workshops to see how effective they are and what kind of influence they have on the final outcome in real practice.

The final result of the workshop together with the related documentation will be my final project.
