Visual design is conceived as a fundamental aspect of the project, tightly integrated with the equipment and landscape architecture and acts as a narrative echo, sewing the heterogeneous episodes of the park that are stratified over the years. A special study was therefore dedicated to the relationship between images, materials and colors, trying to give the places a "natural" look and at the same time a clear, ironic and playful aesthetics.
The environmental graphics recall the animals of the Nature Park and associate them with actions related to play, services and educational activities.
At the same time, we created information panels along the tracks, as well as warning signs on the Park's cycle paths. The standard pictogram system of cycle path signs was used and reinterpreted.
An informal, immediately and recognisable style is the guiding thread that characterises the development of the entire internal visual communication system of the Cervia Natural Park.
