About Biblioteche di Roma Tuakiri Waitohu

Ko Biblioteche di Roma he tuakiri waitohu i hangaia mō te whatunga whare pukapuka tūmatanui o te tāone o Rōma. Ko tēnei tuakiri he tohu i te huritau rua tekau mā rima o te pūnaha whare pukapuka, ā, ko tōna whāinga he whakaatu i te auahatanga me te wātea ki te katoa. I whakaatuhia e te moko tawhito he pukapuka kua kati e takoto ana ki tōna taha. Ko te tohu hou he pukapuka tuwhera, ka taea hoki te pānui hei reta tuatahi o te ingoa. He mā, he matua te tohu whakairoiro. Ka whakamahia te tuakiri ki te pūnaha tuhinga tari, ki ngā pānga matihiko, ki te whakatairanga, ki ngā pāpāho o waho me ngā tohu ārahi.

Unique Properties
To convey the idea of an agile structure such as Istituzione Sistema Biblioteche di Roma (Rome’s public libraries), which on its 25th anniversary needed to reflect its essence with greater force, we created a new identity to express innovation and accessibility. The identity of Biblioteche, in all its applications, is linked to the presence of the institutional brand Roma Culture of the Department for Cultural Growth of the Municipality of Rome which is a stakeholder in Biblioteche system.
Dimensions & Packaging
The coordinated image was applied to all physical and digital touchpoints of the Biblioteche di Roma system:
-Stationery system
-Digital touchpoints
-Adv
-OOH
-Signage

Production Technology
The idea was to reproduce the symbol of an open book that could be read at the same time as the first letter of the brand. A clean, essential graphic sign, perfect for dialogue with local but also international institutions.
Design Challenge
On reaching the milestone of its twenty-fifth anniversary, the Istituzione Sistema Biblioteche di Roma, felt the need to reflect its contemporary and accessible essence more effectively. A challenge of innovation and simplification accepted by Ragù Communication. The Rome-based studio has in fact conceived and designed a new brand identity with the power to fully convey the idea of an agile and modern institutional structure.
Inspiration
In this new identity we find the book, already familiar from the historic logo - represented by the illustration of a closed book resting on its side - but with an important change: it is an open book, a powerful symbol of accessibility, because it is open and accessible to the entire Biblioteche network
Project Duration
The project began in Rome in January 2021 and was delivered to the client in April 2021
Operation Flow
With the creation of a new identity with a more accessible, modern and inclusive design, a brand such as that of the public libraries of Rome has maximum impact, proving to be a powerful tool for the recognisability of the image of this service organised in a widespread network of branches throughout the Municipality of Rome. Users can therefore easily associate the visual identity with the service provided, recognise it and use it as a result.
