Feito à mão: o encontro entre design e artesanato para a valorização cutural

Abstract

This Final Course Work, entitled “Handmade: the meeting between Design and Crafts for cultural appreciation”, aims to promote the revaluation of Brazilian crafts, recognizing this manual knowledge as an essential historical and cultural heritage for future generations. The proposal seeks to give visibility to the stories of artisans, especially female artisans from the State of Goiás, valuing their knowledge, techniques and creations. To this end, an editorial project was developed in the form of a playful and interactive object-book, which allows the reader to experiment with different craft techniques in an accessible and sensitive way, regardless of age. The project establishes a dialogue between design and handmade, providing an immersive experience through manual and affective elements. By encouraging experimentation and interaction with the content, the book promotes the recognition of the value of crafts, contributing to its cultural preservation and reinforcing its importance in the contemporary context.
