Brochures and Magazine

Digital brochures Digital magazine

Our tasks for "Diversity&Inclusion" were planning and coordinating an entire workshop that took place at ISIA di Firenze (Florence).

Enhance perspectives, share experience and design new scenarios, in order to break the cultural and social barriers.

The "Diversity&Inclusion" lab was thought with the aim to expose what social media and mass communication don't let us see, making it subject of a dinamic knowledge, free of prejudices and open to equality.

The workshop wants to introduce new points of view and new opportunities for students within the field of Diversity&Inclusion. The focus in on communication, its forms and on studying and approaching to new languages, throught workshops and activities.

My tasks

Within the team I worked in, I was assigned with many stimulating tasks.

  • Research
    about the items to introduce and the guests that we wanted to contact.
  • Planning
    in order to have slots of talk, interviews and labs.
  • Interviews and talk
    I did some research to introduce some items, and I wrote some questions for our guests, who I interviewed during the week.
  • Brochures
    I designed the final brochures.

Sharing

Within these activities, "Diversity&Inclusion" introduced itself as a safe place: everyone could share their opinions, their experiences, or introducing their works.

Researching

Our aim was to plan an event as coherent as possible with our intentions, in order to give everyone a good balance among theory, pratice and scientific studies.

The calendar

One of the hardes tasks was to plan all the 5 days, dividing the activies, calling the guests and planning all the slots. Our idea was to split the days, in order to dedicate the right amount of time to every item, and of course to the lab part.

The activities

With these premises, the activities were split among:

  • ted talk
  • brainstorming
  • laboratories

PlayLIS

Year: 2024
Team: Alessandra Lupi, Sofia Maugeri, Clara Mineo, Alessandra Pellegrino, Alice Tealdi, Giorgia Stringher
This project was developed in within the course Mass Communication taught by Massimiliano Coviello.

Digital support

Prototype

"PlayLIS" is the prototype of a multimedia platform that helps primary school teachers to study and teach the Italian Sign Language (LIS) to their students.

This platform was developed within the Media Literacy laboratory, with the aim to reflect on media education and the use of media for educational purpose.

Our platform comes from the need to learn the sign language (the Italian one, in this case), in order to include deaf people, and from the awareness of how much education is important for our community.

Alongside with our research, we designed a prototype of the platform, that shows the dashboard where you can select the lesson and the following game.

My tasks

Within the team I worked in, I was assigned with many stimulating tasks.

  • Research
    about deafness and sign languages, in order to study the context we were working in.
  • Prototyping
    the dashboard, where you can select all the items.
  • I've also worked with my teammates to create the brand identity for the platform.

Ortica

Year: 2024
Team: Giulia Barone, Alessandra Lupi, Sofia Maugeri, Lara Prandini Daria Verrastro
This project was developed in within the workshop Diversity&Inclusion of the professor Maurizio Galluzzo (read more).

Magazine

Digital magazine

"Ortica" is the itchy sexual magazine. It was developed within the context of "Diversity&Inclusion", during a workshop where we had to create an inclusive brand.

Prickly, rough, and sharp.

Sex work in our society is considered a taboo. The aim of Ortica is to destroy all the prejudices around sex work, to educate people and have a safer, more respectful and healthier image of sex workes. Every article and interview resume voices, experience and pictures: braind and bodies inside the sex work that introduce themself, showing sides that hug and sting our mentality.

A manifest for sex workers: Ortica wants to face our common lives with a quarterly pubblication, associating every season to a specific item. We put together the awareness and human dignity of sex workers and the need to guarantee them a proper access to health and personal protection.

Not just a porno magazine, but its reverse: we used the erotics to flip our ideas of erotics, in order to teach us and everyone to respect it.

My tasks

I worked to the brand identity with my teammates, wrote the essays and selected the articles and intervirew to put inside our prototype of the no. O of the magazine.

Outputs

Orticais composed by a magazine and a smaller photo attachment.

Il Festival del Ciclo Mestruale

Year: 2024
Project still in progress
Realized by: Alessandra Lupi
The redesign project is developed within the course Graphic Design taught by Marco Romano.

in progress...

"Il Festival del Ciclo Mestruale" ("Period Festival") is a femminist festival that takes place in Milan, during 3 days of May. The 2024 edition is the third of the festival.

A Festival for Every-Body! This year, we focus on bodies: big, small, young, old, tall, short. Bodies with and without period, that had it or not, or are going to.

Withing the course of Graphic Design we were asked to think and design a new identity of an Italian cultural festival, focusing on typography.

After analyzing the festival, its values and stiles, I thought of a new brand identity that focuses on colours, typography and contents, in order to promote inclusivity and empowerment, against all the prejudices about period.

Realized by: Alessandra Lupi
This project was developed in within the course Computer Techniques for Communication taught by Salvatore Paone.

Website

The new website of Astra Cinema was developed as a project withing a course held at university, that asked us to redesign a website.

Alongside with the web design work, I created a new brand identity for the cinema, working on the logo, the typography and the color palette.


Astra Cinema doesn't have an own webiste, but it's insered into the Fondazione Stensen web platform: I decided to think a total indipendent website, working on colors and communication.

So I designed a new modern and more colorful logo, basing the color identity on the contrast between yellow and blu, and showing in the homepage some selection of movies and events, which can't be found on the current website.

Villa Medicea La Petraia

Year: 2023
Realized on-site
Realized by: Alessandra Lupi
The project was developed within an intership as part of my bachelor degree.

Display papers

Digital preview

During the internship at Villa Medicea La Petraia, a Medici Villa situated in Florence, the main task I was assigned to was making the new display papers for the museum rooms inside the Villa.

I was asked to achieve Readability and lightness, working on the previous display papers, full of pictures and with a very dark background pattern.

My work

So, I decided to work on both sides starting with a strong color contrast (black/white), using red to highlight the link to the audioguides.

I also decided to put in every paper an illustration made by me of the most important forniture element inside each room.

Research

As I was working for a National museum, I did a lot of research to project an efficient and proper design of the display papers, starting by studying the guidelines of the government.
