Gambiarra is a term that has been widely used informally to define any procedure necessary for the constitution or configuration of an improvised artifact. Because it is a phenomenon of material culture, gambiarra can be understood as an alternative form of design - this, if we consider that the concept of design is not defined by the simple aesthetic issue, nor by the so-called "stylism", but by the act of idealizing or constituting objects; conceiving form, function and meaning.The gambiarra issue proposes several questionings and reflections about design and post-use; the value of some material resources available; necessity, creativity and solution; identity and culture; sustainability, innovation, and artifact development. Something far from the commonplace that is usually classified as "glamorization of poverty".
