Experimental methodologies in the conservation of design objects. Case studies from the RECOPLART Project

The RECOPLART Project has allowed for the study and restoration of 28 objects of the Plart Collection, selected according to four parameters: relevance of historical aspects, design type, condition of the object and type of material used. Four case studies were selected based on the different mater...
