In 2022 and 2023, the project focused on renovating the facades of businesses in the Território do Bem region, which facilitates communication with the visiting public and thus boosts the businesses of participating entrepreneurs. This paper also seeks to highlight the positive impacts for the communities and students of this interaction process, as well as the successes and failures throughout its development. It also demonstrates that the articulation between different actors suggests that Design can cross boundaries of action, expanding the possibility of dialogue in different contexts, in the same way that it is capable of boosting local businesses.
