Located in San Patrignano, Italy, the 1,300 residents of this treatment center learn professional skills \u2013 including viticulture, wine making, and woodworking \u2013 and produce more than 450,000 liters of wine each year, aging it all in 230 liter French oak barrels.\u003Cbr \/\u003EThe fact that these barrels can be used for only three years led the community of San Patrignano to develop an innovative design project for the recycling of old wine barrels. They reached out to thirty well-known designers and architects \u2014 including Marc Sadler, Karim Rashid, Angela Missoni, and Alessandro Mendini \u2014 asking each of them to design a piece of furniture using wood reclaimed from wine barrels. Then, the residents of San Patrignano crafted the pieces of furniture out of old barrels, effectively demonstrating how design innovation can be used to achieve social good.\u003Cbr \/\u003EThe furniture crafted in this project was displayed to great critical acclaim at the Salone del Mobile in 2012 and will be on display at MODA in 2013 as part of the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs\u2019 \u201cYear of Italian Culture\u201d in the United States.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003Eby the School of Industrial Design, features designs using recycled wine barrels.\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Exhibit at MODA, sponsored by the School of Industrial Design, features designs using recycled wine barrels."}],"uid":"27814","created_gmt":"2013-09-18 08:38:54","changed_gmt":"2016-10-08 02:04:46","author":"Lisa Herrmann","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2013-09-16T09:00:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2013-09-16T09:00:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2013-09-16T09:00:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2013-09-16 13:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2013-09-16 13:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2013-09-16 13:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"hg_media":{"238331":{"id":"238331","type":"image","title":"Barrique","body":null,"created":"1449243670","gmt_created":"2015-12-04 15:41:10","changed":"1475894914","gmt_changed":"2016-10-08 02:48:34","alt":"Barrique","file":{"fid":"197726","name":"moda_barrique_540x540.png","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/moda_barrique_540x540_0.png","image_full_path":"http:\/\/tlwarc.hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/moda_barrique_540x540_0.png","mime":"image\/png","size":327341,"path_740":"http:\/\/tlwarc.hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/images\/moda_barrique_540x540_0.png?itok=5KPSKNZI"}}},"media_ids":["238331"],"groups":[{"id":"1221","name":"College of Design"},{"id":"1225","name":"School of Industrial Design"},{"id":"145331","name":"Georgia Tech Arts"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"74201","name":"Barrique"},{"id":"5008","name":"moda"},{"id":"167108","name":"school of industrial design"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
