The best profile

Face to face with science, for the 2026 Lagrange Prize.

Autumn is data science season here at the studio.

For the fourth consecutive year, Bellissimo has designed the visual setup for the Lagrange Prize ceremony, the leading international award dedicated to complex systems science. Promoted by Fondazione CRT and coordinated by ISI Foundation, the prize was awarded to Dashun Wang, a professor at Northwestern University, Chicago and a leading figure in research on the mechanisms of scientific innovation.

As in previous years, the graphic design brings ISI Foundation’s visual identity, created through our 2023 rebranding, into the industrial spaces of OGR Torino. This edition’s visual theme takes inspiration from the initiative’s namesake and symbolic figure, the great Turin-born mathematician Lagrange. His profile is multiplied and mirrored, overlapped and intersected, generating a distinctive abstract visual language. The inspiration for this play of reflections comes from this year’s theme, “the science of science,” which refers to Wang’s research.

The ceremony is the main event in ISI Foundation’s public calendar and a gathering point for a community of faculty members and researchers. The visual setup creates a distinguished and welcoming setting, carefully crafted and dynamic — the ideal space for an organization that seeks to connect scientific excellence with engagement in contemporary society.
