The pictorial map of Sicily was created by Scuola Italiana Moderna.

The Scuola Italiana Moderna (SIM) emerged in 1961 as an avant-garde design institution, originating in Palermo and co-founded by a visionary cohort of designers, which notably included Carlo Scarpa, Ettore Sottsass, and Alessandro Mendini. Its primary mission was to catalyze a paradigm shift in design philosophy, emphasizing experimentation and fostering collaboration across disciplines, bringing together designers, architects, artists, and skilled craftsmen.

The SIM played a pivotal role in shaping the trajectory of 20th-century Italian design. Its students actively contributed to the emergence of groundbreaking styles and movements, such as the postmodern and radical design movements.

In 1961, the SIM relocated to Milan, becoming a focal point for design innovation and discourse until 1966. During this period, the school served as a dynamic platform for hosting conferences, seminars, exhibitions, and workshops.

The Scuola Italiana Moderna left an indelible mark on both Italian and global design landscapes. Its alumni were instrumental in reshaping the very essence of design, championing a spirit of experimentation, innovation, and accessibility.
