Issue One extends Design Philology Essays from origins to an expanded, research-driven atlas of Italian academic design. Anchored in the platform’s digital archive, editorial environment, and hypertextual infrastructure, the volume deepens inquiry into genealogies, platforms, and frontiers that have shaped the Design System at Politecnico di Milano and across Italy. The Essays follow a rhizomatic, open structure, interlinking documents, data, and narratives.The opening contributions reconstruct the turning points that brought design into the Italian university, followed by a comparative map of international doctoral platforms and research networks that consolidate a shared epistemic community. Further chapters retrace the formation of distinctive areas within the School of Design, including Fashion Design, Interior Design, and Yacht Design, examining their origins, the pedagogical and research infrastructures that supported them, and their connections to social and cultural contexts and to industry.Frontier domains center on Space Design, where methodological testing meets extreme constraints, and on Infopoetry, where data visualization becomes an instrument of conceptual and aesthetic investigation. A place-based perspective on territorial systems and networks shows one of the first experiences of design for local communities and territories. The closing focus revisits a pivotal figure whose early editorial and educational practices anticipated the establishment of the School of Design at Politecnico di Milano. These contributions compose a plural narrative that documents institutions, actors, and cultures of design in motion, inviting readers to explore across times, scales, and media the evolving memory of a discipline.
