The Design

About Fondazione Alinari Primær funktion: Brandidentitet

Fondazione Alinari er en brandidentitet skabt for Fondazione Alinari per la Fotografia, et offentligt organ grundlagt i Firenze med henblik på bevaring, forvaltning og formidling af Alinaris fotografiske samlinger. Identiteten er bygget op omkring det lille bogstav a, en abstraktion af et kameraobjektiv, der også fungerer som en ramme for billeder fra det historiske arkiv. Skulpturel typografi og en sort-hvid palet henviser til lys og skygge. Systemet anvendes på trykte materialer, billetter, kataloger, merchandising og en hjemmeside.

Design Challenge
The main purpose of the foundation is to promote a widespread culture of photography, starting with the Alinari collections, while preserving their authentic historical and cultural value, their physical integrity, and guaranteeing the best conditions for increased awareness of and access to them. So the design had to reflect the long history behind and at the same time to stand out from the previous brand.
Research
The previous brand was a private subject. The new one is a public institution held by Tuscany Region which recognised the exceptional cultural value of the Alinari holdings and resolved to purchase them and began an operation of cultural policy and investment, which has saved this archive, one unique in the world for its size and value, from dispersal and dismemberment, while also guaranteeing its future use and accessibility.
Inspiration
The term photography comes from a Greek compound word, light and handwriting, literally "writing with light". Brand features are: Sculptural lettering, Black and white (light and shadow), Accent on "Alinari" word, Focus on the letter A (lowercase, as abstraction of the camera lens). The A is photo container to represent the huge and historical Alinari archive.
