In fact, through the medium of students' projects it was possible to compare and discuss the different teaching approaches and methodologies which sustain them. "Hospitality" encompasses cultural aspects, regional differences, tourism and many other issues pertaining to the economic and commercial environments of our cities and countries. That is to say, a complex theme in which the role of designers is encreasingly relevant in light of their skills and ability to understand the needs of the various stakeholders involved in many different dimensions, from the social to the cultural, economic and environmental, and cater to them with concrete propositions.
