Methods
In the fashion world, shoes are the most complicated and sophisticated of all projects, requiring specific knowledge of structures and procedures to create a viable product.
Italy's long tradition of fine craftsmanship, materials and design produces most of the world's luxury and fashion footwear.

Shoes are also objects of great desire and powerful expressions of a fashion brand's identity.
Working in close relationship to the resources and realities of the local luxury industry, from master craftsmen to innovative technology and research, the learning experience is more professional team than scholastic classroom.

Classroom lecture, industry and trade show visits, master class artisan workshops, provide the basis for group projects and individual research.
