Cover of Decoratori Bassanesi’s Journal Edition N. 1

A new corporate identity for Decoratori Bassanesi, an Italian producer of craft-inspired ceramic tiles developed in collaboration with international designers.

Filippo La Duca and Stefano Lucchetti, working with art director Federica Biasi, redesigned the identity to establish a sharper, more contemporary visual language grounded in research and innovation.

The system is built around a responsive logotype and typographic framework designed to operate fluidly across print and digital contexts. Echoing the modular nature of the tiles themselves, the typography adapts across scale while maintaining consistency and presence.

The identity uses BST Ritma for the logotype and primary communication, with GT America Mono in a supporting role.
