Abstract

The Industrial Design in South America can be observed from different points of view, both in its historical route as well as in its geographic distribution, being the South American territory a conjunction of ten countries and diverse cultures and influences, variety of immigrant currents and diferente mixed races.

This “chromatic” vision will coincide in the fact that the “hybrid” is always present in the southamerican design, and that the designer-project relationship with (or against) company-production generates a greater degree of difficulty in the search of identity. In the design, the center-periphery tension can be found in its project phase, or the reverse tension, periphery-center, in its stages of industrialization.
