The second chapter, focuse of two case studies, analyzing in detail two projects that resemble to the proposal of this investigation and support it’s utopical existence. First, we will observe the Autoprogettazione project, by Enzo Mari and then, Nomadic Furniture: D.I.Y. Projects That are Lighweight and Light on the Environment by James Hennessy and Victor Papanek.
