3 IED is far more than a school: it is the melting pot where new generations of professionals are open to face the new reality IED MILAN An International Creative Lab IED, Istituto Europeo di Design, owes its establishment in 1966 to the intuition of its President Francesco Morelli. Day by day, it has become a 100% Made in Italy international network of excellence, operating in the fields of study programs and research, in the disciplines of Design, Fashion, Visual Arts and Communications. Above all, IED is an evolving educational system with capability and dedication to reinvent itself on a daily basis. Its mission is widespread and clear: to offer young creatives a thorough training both theoretical and practical and hand them the Design Knowledge and Mindset that will guide them throughout their lives. IED is far more than a school: thanks to its unwavering commitment to innovation, it is the melting pot where new generations of professionals are open to face the new reality. IED is a powerhouse of ideas that develops creativity through its range of: undergraduate courses masters courses postgraduate courses FOUR SCHOOLS FOR 4 CREATIVE WORLDS The design matrix takes the shape of the four IED Schools: IED Design, IED Fashion Lab, IED Visual Arts and IED Management Lab. Each IED location houses four completely independent schools sharing the common denominator of design culture. IED teaching methods require that all the schools: forge strong bonds with the local production and operation systems in their regions; interface with their benchmark sectors; evolve depending on the growth standards of their underlying markets and professional situations. For these reasons, rather than just keeping in step with their times, IED courses are often thriving trend anticipators. IED represents a conceptual innovation hub. A number of professionals from a variety of backgrounds come together to provide the input for a cross-fertilisation between areas and disciplines. The outcome is excellence. Evidence of this value is found in IED s essential role in such leading events as Milan Salone del Mobile and Milan Fashion Week. IED LOCATIONS MILAN, IED SINCE 1966 Heart of Made in Italy, fashion, design and communication, as well as business, Milan is the standard bearer of the design culture that ranges from the decorative arts to products for industry. It was here that the first IED location was established. The freshness and character of the trainees that IED launched into the market immediately set the pace for this cultural context: its impassioned young creatives soon became the life and soul of the Milan design scene. Ever since 1966, the dreams, the design, the fashion wave and the forms of the future have all born the IED brand. From Milan to Rome, IED since 1973 Turin, IED since 1989, Venice, IED since 2007, Florence, IED since 2008, Cagliari, IED since 2009, Madrid, IED since 1994, Barcelona, IED since 2002, São Paulo, IED since Master Courses 2011/2012 3
