Abstract

This book talks about shared workspaces, with particular attention to spaces designed to host the production of objects, and is widely based on the results of extensive experimental empirical research conducted by authors in Europe, the USA, and South America between 2012 and 2017. The research involved more than 100 shared workspaces, in which the authors spent over 1000 days. The ethnographic on-field research was carried out using direct observation and through many interviews, which were filmed and subsequently processed through typical methods of visual anthropology. This chapter provides an overview of the different types of shared workspace, illustrates research actions and explains how and where it has developed.
