Neo-nomadism is the theme of this fourth edition, a concept moving seamlessly between real and digital life in a survey of new movements of culture and labour. These have always featured throughout the history of mankind but are now also very much associated with the phenomena of the great economic divide and of climate change. This fourth edition of Lake Como Design Festival explores how the constant movement of people is a defining element of our times that is also influencing art, architecure and design.
