Move with Sella

Before beginning

In january of 2006, the family of Achille Castiglioni, signed an agreement of 5 years with the Triennale of Milan, that way the Achille Castiglioni museum-studio could be open to the public. After the great success, the family wanted to continue the fact of sharing the stories that the place have with the people, for this reason in december of 2011 was born the foundation of Achille Castiglioni

The foundation keeps stories, objects and memories of a time life of one of the father of the italian design: Achille Castiglioni.

Brief

Create a link, that can be reproduce worldwide, between the physical space of the foundation Achille Castiglioni and the outside world through his objects, in order to create brand awareness.

Research and concept process

After doing an analysis to the information, collected in the research phase, we identify some values:
Heritage, inspirational, storytelling, involvement, connection,Irony/playful.

After analysing different objects and discover their stories, we decided to focus in one of the most representative objects of Achille Castiglioni: Sella

Solution

Involving the community in an edutainment urban game

With FuoriSalone on the design week, we created an event around the characteristics of Sella.

5 characteristics - 5 activities - 5 locations

Even though the italian design enthusiasts known the work of Achille Castiglioni, in the design week, a lot of foreigners arrive to the city, that's why before the launch in social media, they can see posters around the city to have an idea of how sella looks like.
