👾 The fifth edition of our Digital Talks has wrapped, and it was truly inspiring!

Huge thanks to our guest, (co-founder of .agency - who shared his powerful talk: "Design as an internal mirror." 

Michele offered a deep dive into the psychology of project success, focusing on the essential relationship between client and project. He reflected on the key connection between the client and their website, which serves as their digital mirror. 

We learned the key ingredients for effective outcomes:
• Structuring a relationship built on trust with the client.
• Leveraging facilitative communication and positive dynamics in workshops to achieve concrete goals.

Thank you, Michele, for highlighting the link between design and work psychology! 🙏

🐚 The Visual Agency collaborated with on an interactive longform project exploring energy creation through agri-feedstock systems. Divided into four main chapters, each represented by a unique 3D element, the project makes complex processes accessible through immersive visual storytelling.

Let’s look into the key aspects: 

Simplifying complex concepts: the project distills agri-hub production into four symbolic elements, guiding users through each stage with clarity and simplicity.

A visually engaging layout: the design integrates photos, videos, and 3D elements to create an immersive, seamless reading experience.

Data clarity through infographics: interactive maps and infographics enhance understanding, making intricate data easily digestible.

📜 How do we reconcile the description of a phenomenon with the experience we have about it? A poetic approach to data could help: there are moments in the data-journey when “feeling” the phenomenon behind the data could be as relevant as accurately “seeing” the data that represent it.

Prof. Paolo Ciuccarelli delves into this subject discussing the need to engage users emotionally with complex data and emphasizing the importance of considering user reactions and intentions in design decisions.
