Each year, the Lagrange Prize reminds us of the pleasure of working with scientific institutions.

Promoted by Fondazione CRT and coordinated by the ISI Foundation, the prize —named after the great Turin-born mathematician— is the leading international award in the field of Complex Systems and Data Science. The recipient of this fourteenth edition was Professor Iyad Rahwan, Director of the Max Planck Institute for Human Development in Berlin.

The award ceremony, traditionally held at OGR Torino, represents the moment of greatest local visibility for ISI Foundation. In 2023, Bellissimo led the rebranding of the research institute and has since been in charge of the graphic design of the event’s installations, with organization handled by Agenzia Uno.

The visual communication —from the stage to the panels, from the entrance screens to the introductory video— reinterprets ISI Foundation’s visual identity to convey the close relationship between us, data, and our understanding of the world around us. It’s through data that we can grasp natural and social phenomena, make informed decisions, and generate positive impact.

The installation strikes a balance between institutional authority and color, in line with the Foundation’s overall image. The final effect is highly evocative, thanks in large part to the post-industrial atmosphere of OGR’s Binario 3 spaces.
