This book arose from an unusual (in academic terms) event, when an academic scholar (Rachele Pierini) met the founder and director of a modern design company (Eugenio Perazza). According to the volume’s preface, designers and classicists coexist and intersect, since “de-signers observe phenomena and convey the core part of their message into a new form through a different mate-rial, [just as] classicists use these same mechanisms in working with words and texts” (vii).
