What were the criteria for research and selection of the case studies?

In developing the content of S_tiles, all of the available on-line and printed publications of Assopiastrelle, its associates and the principle institutions of reference were analysed. In addition a comparative research of the most relevant markets of the ‘made in Italy’ ceramic was conducted through the publications of universities, research centres, trade fairs, congresses, architecture prizes and competitions and distribution networks. The analysis privileged regulations, tools for environmental and social management and in general all of the ‘dedicated’ initiatives. In selecting the case studies the principle European and North American architecture and design magazines were reviewed in addition to the communications between associates. Finally, a dialogue was initiated with the associated companies with the aim of receiving their contributions in order to progressively enrich the gallery of the most interesting accomplishments.
