Subscriber Access

This is the case for architect Leo Laniado and chemist Osiel Alves Pereira, who joined forces to produce handmade paints with extraordinary results. This leads us to consider the role of interdisciplinary integration in achieving more productive and comprehensive solutions. Is it multidisciplinarity, pluridisciplinarity, or interdisciplinarity? The case of Laniado and Alves demonstrates once again the success that comes from merging skill sets in the professional and, above all, creative spheres.
