Datascape
Datascape is the research developed for my Master Degree in Interior Design at Politecnico of Milan. In this work I explore the possibility to understand the implications of big data coming from Instagram to implement the creative process of the interior design in public spaces.

I studied how big data produced by contemporary citizens through the appication of social networks could change the morphology of the urban space.
Through Instagram people use to connote the place where they live in a positive way, event if the place is characterized by sets of problems.
So people create a strong contrast between the physical and the digital space. The digital space, in this case, is intended as the space of big data produced by contemporary citizens that I call Datascape.
In my opinion, data produced by contemporary people are very important, because they become real signs in the physical space, defining a new digital cultural geography of the city.
