Negli ultimi decenni i campi di ricerca e di applicazione della professione del design si sono allargati così tanto come la definizione del design come disciplina che riguardano la concezione del manufatto industriale non sembrano sufficienti a descrivere una professione completa. Una delle caratteristiche trasversali e fondamentale di questa trasformazione è stata l’introduzione dei concetti di sostenibilità e sviluppo sostenibile in progetto di design. Il cambiamento ha riguardato anche la metodologia di progettazione: negli ultimi anni l’attenzione è passata dalla progettazione di prodotti industriali per la concezione della soluzione articolata con l’obiettivo di soddisfare le esigenze dell’utente e del desiderio attraverso l’elaborazione di un sistema integrato di prodotti e servizi. L’articolazione di un approccio sostenibile con una metodologia di sistema ha portato i progettisti a concentrarsi su nuovi settori, tra gli altri, il settore sociale. In questa nuova area della professione del design sta iniziando a sperimentare nuove direzioni, compresa la progettazione di soluzioni per il miglioramento delle condizioni di vita della comunità in cui le persone, le idee, le esigenze e problematiche possono trovare un supporto e le competenze per la nuova costruzione collaborativa e le soluzioni creative . La tesi si propone di lavorare sulle attuali attività manuali in casa sociale Via “Lope de Vega” nel quartiere Barona. Questo progetto si basa sul progetto esteso, “Punto e Linea”. L’obiettivo è quello di proporre un sistema innovativo di prodotti e servizi per migliorare la coesione sociale e il dialogo intergenerazionale tra abitanti e visitatori del palazzo e la zona circostante. Il lavoro di tesi consiste nella progettazione di un sistema di prodotto-servizio che sia in grado di auto-sostenere dal punto di vista economico anche dopo la fine dei fondi della “Fondazione Cariplo” trasformandosi in una “socialità organizzata” e anche con un basso impatto sull’ambiente da un strategie operative con particolare attenzione ai rapporti tra le parti interessate all’interno del distretto Barona. L’attività che ha sostenuto l’intero progetto, ha interessato quatro campi diversi. La prima parte si basa sulla revisione della letteratura con l’obiettivo di individuare le strategie, i processi, le pratiche e le indicazioni di design per la sostenibilità nel contesto sociale. La seconda parte della ricerca è sul progetto TANGO (AH-Design) sostenibile sociale inclusiva progetto UE e le azioni che è in corso in base ai propri obiettivi e dei loro risultati in 3 diverse università in Europa. la sezione di Milano del progetto Tango menzionato precedentemente e’ stata descritta in maniera dettaglitat in relazione alle varie associazioni e stakeholder a questo associati.Questa parte ha analizzato le attività esistenti nelle case popolari di via “Lope de Vega” e il progetto di tesi ha lo scopo di migliorarle scoprendo i problemi sociali e ambientali del progetto esistente. Il terzo capitolo affronta in dettaglio, il progetto di design PSS e il metodo MSDS da alcuni cambiamenti confronto al metodo originale per adattarsi al nuovo contesto zona. La seconda parte del terzo capitolo, si concentra sul contesto del hub Barona e tratti particolari di questa zona. Questa parte contiene dati demografici e l’analisi del contesto e le parti interessate esecutive esistenti per conoscere le potenzialità ei limiti del lavoro in questo quartiere e dei risultati delle attività di co-design, che attraverso di loro i nuovi concetti sono stati creati e diventare la base per la parte finale del progetto “Remade in Barona”. A seguito di questa parte il nuovo progetto “Remade in Barona” e le sue offerte al popolo di Barona è stato illustrato in dettaglio. Lungo la quarta parte, è stata presentata le future attività del progetto Tango che è la mostra interattiva e workshop sui progetti tesi progettati, con gli stakeholder e i normali frequentatori. Infine, per riassumere il processo ed i risultati, è stata fatta una valutazione da diversi punti di vista. In questa parte anche replicabilità del progetto finale in diversi contesti e gli scenari futuri sono stati presi in considerazione.

Abstract
In the last decades the research and application fields of design profession have widen so much as the definition of design as a discipline that concern the conception of industrial artefact appear not sufficient to describe a comprehensive profession. One of the transversal and fundamental characteristic of this transformation has been the introduction of the concepts of sustainability and sustainable development into design project. The change has concerned also the design methodology: in the last years the attention has switched from the design of industrial products to the conception of articulated solution with the aim to fulfil the user’s needs and desire through the elaboration of integrated system of product and service. The joint of a sustainable approach with a systemic methodology has led designers to focus on new sectors, among the others the social sector. In this new area the design profession is starting to experience new directions, including the design of solutions for the improvement of living conditions of community where people, ideas, needs and problem can find a support and skills to build new collaborative and participated and creative solutions.
