Walking, Learning, Enjoying. Mobile Technology on the Trail of Design Masterpieces

Abstract
The paper describes Looking for Achille Castiglioni - LfAC - a mobile location-based application designed to lead visitors to the discovery of Achille Castiglioni's projects in downtown Milan. The renowned architect and designer's works are valorised and brought back to life through contextual contents delivered to visitors' smartphones: documents, drawings, photos, models tell the story of architectures, temporary exhibitions, interior and design projects that shaped the history of Italian design. The paper frames LfAC in the context of location based services, describes the process of development, presents the results and discusses the lessons learnt.
