16 - Aves - Stories of Wings and Landscapes (Eleonora Bianchini Palma an Cristina Scatarzi)

by Eleonora Bianchini Palma and Cristina Scatarzi

Aves is a project designed to tell the story, through graphic design and form, of the unique bird species that inhabit the area around Lake Gramolazzo. In this landscape rich in biodiversity, Aves aims to give voice to the birds of the territory, offering hikers a unique opportunity to discover who they are sharing their natural space with, through colors, sounds and stories. The project proposes an engaging, creative and respectful communication strategy, capable of bringing visitors closer to the environment in an active and participatory way. Wayfinding signage, informational panels dedicated to seven local species and an interactive map that tells the complexity of the ecosystem by grouping species into categories have been created.

Each visual element integrates harmoniously into the landscape, becoming part of the immersive park experience. The carefully crafted graphics and accessible texts stimulate curiosity and offer interpretive keys that are accessible but never simplistic, addressing both adults and children, hikers and locals. Aves thus assumes an educational and informative role, promoting knowledge of the territory and awareness of the value of biodiversity and natural balance. Each panel tells stories of habits, behaviors and movements, inviting visitors to observe, listen and feel like an active part of a living, delicate and vital ecosystem.

Aves is an act of care and attention: an environmental communication project that makes visible what often remains invisible, offering a fresh perspective on the territory and its infinite stories of wings.
