GRAPHIC DAYS® KIDS
–
Grow younger! The seventh edition of the Graphic Days® festival, which took place from September 17 to October 2, is dedicated to the Kids theme through three interpretations: Design For Kids, Design Like Kids and Design By Kids.
In 2022 the festival changed format and adopted a widespread approach in the city through a program of initiatives structured in 6 main locations and articulated over time.
From the world of publishing, to the production of games to the development of dedicated programs by cultural institutions, children in fact offer a field of constant experimentation for visual design and social design.

The visual
_
The visual design starts from the perspective of generating an organic system that can embrace the graphic identity of the 2022 edition of the festival and be the basis for unique generative artwork. Each design phase rests on a parametric approach, through the synergy of tools and experimentation, to produce a complex result that can enhance articulation and uniqueness in the multitude. With the genesis of the first form also comes the equation to generate infinite diversified declinations. Then, as a natural consequence of geometry, the design of the colour formula, an element of vitality and dynamism, is born.
On the occasion of the 7th edition of the Graphic Days® festival, we created inside Cavallerizza Reale an immersive-experiential space with the aim of connecting the world of visual design and NFT with the universe of children. Thanks to the encounter between digital and the manual skills, we gave life to unique works: the visual of the festival has been declined in many outputs through the use of different techniques, from screen printing to risograph, to the creation of fabrics and each work has a corresponding NFT.
Thank you!
