Florence

Florence

Florence is the focal point of the Italian renaissance and home to an incredible cultural, artistic and architectural patrimony. These proud traditions are still part of the economic and creative fabric and are a fundamental component of the curriculum. Florence offers students an inspirational patrimony of artistic and cultural heritage that serves as the backdrop to the IED's innovative design programs.

IED Florence opened in 2008 in the historic center of Florence in the “Casa della Creatività” an initiative of the municipal government of Florence as a space to promote dialogue, creativity and performance. This unique space is located in the cloister of Santa Maria Maggiore, one of Florence oldest churches that has its origins in the 10th century.

IED Florence courses and initiatives have at their roots the culture of local traditional craftsmanship and mastery of innovation and reinvention that are characteristics of the areas of Santa Croce and the leather trade, the Oltrarno and the thriving artisan community and nearby Prato the center of the textile industry. The combination of local resources and the IED approach are all part of the Italian idea of “Saper far bene le cose” – “knowing how to make things well”.
