Il parergon dell'ente. Premesse per una fenomenologia del design

The parergon of the beings
Premises for a phenomenology of Design

Abstract
The essay proposes a reflection on design intended as a more and more undistinguishable moment between the work of art and the common beings or world-environment. In our contemporaneity we tolerate less and less that strange transcendence of the work of art on the world-environment, in which modern tradition celebrates itself and the cult of a singular subjectivity. A continuity between the works of art and the community of work, in which the styles of our long modernity are becoming a distant memory, is becoming ever more normal. However, the undistinguishable quality between work of art and design would not be comprehensible if not encircled in a stilema phenomenology. If by stilema we did not intend the element in which the maximum grade of visibility of an epochal horizon is exposed. Extreme visibility, a visibility into which phenomenological tradition runs with the frail oxymoron of an appearance that converts into a certain inappearance. The stilema, thus, like the name for the exposition of this inappearance, for an appearance brought to its conversion into the inappearance, for the being of beings that from Heidegger on we try to inherit in its difference (without diverging) from the beings.
