Starting from these two perspectives, the project served as a point of unity between experimental and collaborative investigation that traced historical references through four designs. It also examined real projects to anchor them in the present, explored their transformative possibilities up close and speculated about new contexts of living and future paths in the practice of design.<\/p>\n<p>The idea behind the <strong>Mutating Atlas<\/strong> device is to generate a cartographic system showing all the projects and initiatives, both national and international, that have participated in the ten editions of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rehogar.net\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">REHOGAR Open design &amp; Reuse<\/a><\/p>\n<p>This cartography system displays two different levels of information with complementary maps: the conceptual level, that represents and visualises the REHOGAR project\u2019s key concepts or categories, and the geographic level, with filters to help in the search process.<\/p>\n<p>Participants developed a work process that can be divided into two parts:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>identifying and defining<\/strong> <strong>a system of categories<\/strong> that allow us to explain the nature of the projects, and<\/li>\n<li><strong>formalising different cartographic categorie<\/strong>s (both analogue and digital) to describe and represent the richness, complexity and composition of the projects.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.makeatuvida.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/rehogarxplus-atlas-mutante_categorias.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-15173 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.makeatuvida.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/rehogarxplus-atlas-mutante_categorias-1270x845.jpg\" alt=\"Dispositivo Atlas Mutante \/ REHOGAR X PLUS.
