This article intends to investigate the House Museum typology and specifically the House Museum Ema Klabin, a collector’s house museum that, due to its institutional aspects, evokes the memory of domestic environments, of the practices and knowledge, lived there, at the same time that it presents objects and artifacts of a collection of cultural interest that testifies to epistemologies based on material culture. To this end, this article investigates the environment of the Dining Room and the Mesa (Ex) Posta exhibition held since 2014 in biannual editions as a case study and seeks to understand the articulations that operate through exhibition design, understood as part of the project. The article is based on the field of private collecting to make a brief presentation of the historical origins of the House Museum typology and is anchored in fundamental authors in the field of design, Rafael Cardoso and Igor Kopytoff, for understanding exhibition design.

The article presents the main reflections and results of the master's research “Fashion and craft design: a reciprocal social relationship”. The study, anchored in an anthropological approach, delved into the themes of 'Fashion Design' and 'manual production' (referred to in this article as 'Craftsmanship'), conjecturing, in this relationship, reciprocal processes between cultured and popular knowledge and investing on social sustainability. Based on the social approach, applying the theory in practice, we sought to contribute with a theoretical definition for the field of Fashion Design. The theoretical investigation was applied in the practice of women's groups linked to the ModaViva/UNIVILLE Laboratory, which aim, through manual production, to generate work and income. The research highlighted social responsibility and the need for a reciprocal social relationship, between artisans and designers, in the search for a definition of identity for the artifacts produced, considering the producing agents and the historical/geographical/cultural location of this production. The main result referred to the delivery of a dissertation that evidenced the intersection between the craftsmanship of the producers and the academic knowledge of the students of the fashion course, resulting in new artifacts produced with a focus on local identity and consideration for the environment.

The article presents an excerpt from the investigation entitled "Production and marketing of conscious fashion for the timeless brand Sustin", developed together with the Professional Master's in Design at the University of the Region of Joinville (UNIVILLE). This research aimed to investigate production and marketing guidelines, with a view to structuring a Business Model for the Sustin brand. For the project development, the following methodological steps were established: theoretical foundation about sustainable fashion in the current context, sociocultural and market factors in fashion consumption and definition of the Business Model, data collection from similar brands, mapping of inputs and production processes with low environmental impact in the textile market, structuring the Business Model and planning the collection for the Sustin brand. The main results of the research referred to the development of the Business Model for the production and commercialization of artifacts and the creation of the capsule collection for the Sustin brand. The clipping discussed in this article highlights the development of the business model.

In Brazil, the number of deaf people who act as educators and mediators is very small. The hypothesis raised by this article is that the mediation between deaf educator and deaf public is fundamental. When the deaf person is assisted by a hearing person, even if he knows how to communicate in Libras (Brazilian Sign Language), the mediation is incomplete because many communication codes are lost in the interaction and the interpreter of Libras listener does not fully master the vocabulary necessary to pass on the information, the thought, the abstractions, the feeling among other specificities that only the member of the deaf culture knows. To develop this hypothesis, the article brings three case studies: (1) the participation of deaf people in the naming of works in Libras by the sculptor Aleijadinho in the city of Congonhas, in Minas Gerais, (2) the elaboration of the video guide of the Pinacoteca Museum in the city of São Paulo and (3) the Museum of Deaf History, Arts and Culture and the William J. Marra Museum in the city of Olathe, Kansas, USA, which has been dedicated exclusively to Deaf Culture since 2001.

Abstract The Graduate Program in Design at Univille started its activities with the first offer of the Professional Master's in Design class at the University of the Region of Joinville (PPGDesign/Univille). Located in a privileged industrial hub in the north of the state of Santa Catarina (SC), the Program is committed to the public, private and third sector contexts from which its social and professional insertion derives, through applied, technological and strategic research. The report presents the structure, history and future perspectives of the Graduate Program in Design For this, documents, reports for external evaluation bodies such as CAPES, discipline reports and students' projects were consulted. The relevance is justified by the opportunity to reflect on the history and perspective of the course, more precisely over the celebrations of  the course 10 years.   Keywords Professional Master in Design, Design and Sustainability, Social and Professional Insertion. 

This article presents the result of Scientific Initiation research carried out within the scope of the Graphic Design course, in partnership with the Postgraduate Program in Design, at Anhembi Morumbi University. The study took place between November 2021 and October 2022, and its goal was to ask if a genre such as an internet meme has the artistic potential to be included as a type of manifestation within the scope of digital literature. For this, we will study the Brazilian Instagram profile, Greengo Dictionary, which uses images with texts to translate Portuguese expressions into English. We will then classify posts made by the page and observe their visual identity to analyze the profile. Finally, we will demonstrate that despite the apparent randomness of themes and styles, Greengo Dictionary evokes the author's style through vernacular creativity and collaborative multiplicity.

This article aims to provide reflections related to the attribution of the Industrial Designers in portfolio management and product strategies, transcending their focus on product development only  and transiting in the analysis of results of those strategies. It was verified the existence of an alignment between Design methods and monitoring of product performances, having as a background the product portfolio management. For the work development, the method of systematic bibliographic review was used, which sought to answer the question: "do the classic methods of Design help in the post-project follow-up?". As a result, the reflection comprises the breaking of a projectual barrier and the insertion of the designer as a strategic agent capable of providing a competitive differential, contributing to the product portfolio management, using their technical knowledge and their considerations and views about the systemic process of the organization's results, in the strategies alignment that bring the competitive differential focused on the attributes and mainly on the positioning of the products in the moving market.

The article proposes a literature review on the perspective of education in the Bauhaus school of modern design, a period that extends between 1919 and 1933 in Germany. Based on previously published state-of-the-art, the article analyzes the bibliographic production from two angles: publications that enunciate the relationship between industrial design and modernism as an aesthetic and political movement, publications that talk about the Bauhaus relationship with expectations and processes of change Social. In the course of the history of art and design, the authors seek to point out aspects that are common to the set of analyzes already produced on the subject, the gaps that have remained and the diversity of theoretical-methodological approaches on which they have relied. The article concludes by analyzing the influence of social and historical conditions on the formation of the Bauhaus.

This article presents the applied research carried out in the Master’s in Design at University of the Region of Joinville (Univille). The investigation deals with problems related to people with reduced mobility, highlighting the elderly ones, who represent a growing population in Brazil. The frailty of the elderly often requires the assistance of a caregiver to perform daily activities. Even with several technologies available in the health area, the Brazilian market lacks equipment with affordable costs, safety, and effectiveness. The objective of this article is to present the development of the manual assistance equipment project, whose functions are to provide supported mobility and to help caregivers to move and transfer people with reduced mobility in bed. The methodological approach used was the design thinking. To achieve the goals, bibliographic research was initially carried out on the subject, and a field investigation occurred in two long-stay institutions in the city of Joinville, Santa Catarina, Brazil. Based on this survey and using design tools, we achieved a value proposition that underlies the project carried out.
