Zine - Week 4

The second zine we had to make was a really fun one. It was about a text we had read and to truly understand it we had to make a small text of a part of the text and make a zine of it.

Disegno zine

Text:

In Making things as ethical practice Nijenhuis wrote about the term ‘Disegno’ as the core concept of architecture. Disegno refers to the word design, which we all know. But Disegno (Design) has a deeper meaning, a meaning which is not so familiar as what comes in mind when we talk about design. Disegno is the visual expression and clarification of the concept that someone has in her mind and that he imagines in her thoughts and builds up in the idea. Disegno is often expressed by the hand through sketches. Disgeno has an abstract and a material side. The abstract version of Disegno is what the maker has formed in his mind and the material version of Disegno is directed by the hands of the maker.

This makes making things a physical affair. Mind and hands have a different representation about your Disegno. Let your mind be free and give your hands a change.
