HELLO!

I am a graphic designer and lover of all visual things, I am very interested in visual identities, typography and publishing products. I like to experiment in these fields also through the use of symbols and pictograms: it's fascinating how they can give birth to new languages and ways of communicating.

GLOBALE

FOERDERGESELLSCHAFT HFG & ZKM Projected at MAGMA Brand Design, 2013.

+ Poster proposals (din A1 format) for the 25th anniversary of the collaboration between the HfG design institute and the ZKM museum of contemporary art of Karlsruhe.

Objective: fund-raising in order to promote art and creativity in Karlsruhe.

“Engagiert euch” means “commit yourselves” and in these posters it is interpreted as an active commitment and enthusiasm, which motivates to take part and be protagonist in the fund-raising.

The typography has been conceived so that a base symbol is repeated and combined in different positions in order to simulate people’s joining together and creating something bigger.

In the last two posters this concept is illustrated by a spiral which seems to attract and involve the viewer in this initiative.

IBA HEIDELBERG Projected at MAGMA Brand Design, 2013.

+ Invitational competition for the realization of IBA Heidelberg 2022 visual identity. Starting from “Wissen schafft Stadt” payoff, which means “knowledge creates the city”, a new visual identity is created starting from a new language based on signs. Knowledge is the main feature of language systems, and starting with the alphabet, IBA is re-created in pictograms: for each letter of the alphabet a new word with the same topic of IBA is found and represented with a pictogram.

Pictograms will be part of the whole visual identity, including logo, site, business cards and orientation systems. They will give the project a strong dynamism. The Innovative and contemporary communication gives the project a high level of internationality and creativity and keeps intact the connection with the past years, but it makes IBA Heidelberg unique of its kind.

URBAN SIGN LANGUAGE

GLOBALE Projected at MAGMA Brand Design, 2013.

+ Invitational competition about the creation of a logo for a contemporary art exhibition which will take place in Karlsruhe in 2015 for the 300th anniversary of the city. The exhibition will be held at the ZKM (Zentrum fur Kunst und Medientechnologie) and will gather international works but it will mainly focus on the city’s art.

Thanks to the use of the black and the white, the logo appears to be moving on two layers and it evokes a sensation of spaciousness.

The word “Globale” is split by the pyramid, Karlsruhe’s symbol, in the exact moment when it takes life and starts moving around the city; that’s the same space that viewers can occupy, in turn, to explore the wide artistic and cultural overview collected in 300 years.

ORGANIZER, CALENDAR, GREETING CARDS Projected at Laboratorio Zanzara, 2012/2013.

+ Laboratorio Zanzara is a non-profit social cooperative founded in Torino as a project to integrate people with mental disabilities.

The reasons which inspired the studio are based on two basic principles: firstly, to create an environment that respects the participants’creative and work time and secondly, to recognize the people as assets in every activity.

The creativity becomes the basis of work and the act through which it turns into an essential element for a new found right of citizenship.

Layout development for the 2013 organizer and calendar; illustrations and creation of small products in collaboration with mentally disabled people.

2013 ORGANIZER AND CALENDAR

TORINO DESIGN DISTRICT, an hub made of hearts, hands, stuff Project developed with A.Agostini and S.Capellupo.

Bachelor’s thesis, 2012.

+ Turin Design District project arises from the need of bringing the creative culture of Turin to a wider audience. A step towards a new perception of Turin is the main goal, not only as a city connected to industry, but also as creative center.

The answer is the creation of a district which unifies under a unique visual identity all those places with an added value about creativity and design, i.e. those places that stand out in their category. The district isn’t just a space, but has several meanings: a network of different fields of knowledge which values Turin as an experimental place; a community connecting young people, graphic studios and tourists; a showcase which gives visibility to emergent personalities, events and exhibitions; a guide which gives the opportunity to live what the urban culture offers.

The project has a strong democratic characterization and is put into effect through the acknowledgment of the value of places and people selected only for their merit and talent.
