Architecture & Design

For an architecture and design studio, a digital archive is an essential tool, because it allows the firm's assets to be preserved and enhanced through the creation of a well-organized and easily searchable system of sources. A resource that helps put ideas, projects and stories in order, to present itself impeccably to the outside world, to clients or suppliers.
The digital archive is also the place to retrieve the materials such as sketches, photographs, models and technical drawings, needed to enter a tender or organize an exhibition. But it is also a space for ideas, which can be drawn on to bring new projects to life.

What can be archived:

- Design of architectural projects/objects/graphics
- Technical drawings
- Sketches
- 3D renderings
- Plastics / models / prototypes
- Photographs
- Press review
- Videos
- Publications / Monographs
- Construction materials
- Advertising campaigns for design objects
- Catalogs of design products

THE PROCESS

We accompany companies and brands every step of the way in the recovery, selection, and transformation of archives from physical to digital. The activation process involves a series of interventions that begin with the mapping of existing assets and the analysis of all of a company's tangible and intangible assets. The selected content is analyzed by a specialized team to be inventoried, classified and described through tags, metadata and lemmas tailored to each project in order to return a representation of the assets defined as Brand Content Architecture.

The application of the information architecture created allows the creation of relational maps that place the product, project or service at the center, i.e., the starting point for the exploration and preservation of the heritage itself.

MEMORIES - OUR METHOD FOR EACH INDUSTRY

Our method - Memories - is a tool designed to build a solid and lasting heritage, devoted to the protection of all those tangible and intangible assets that enable a company to preserve, consolidate and enhance its identity over time.

The aim is to safeguard know-how by putting it into a system within a digital environment that allows it to protect, consult and (re)use its knowledge assets.

Our content-driven approach allows us to build customized solutions from content, building each project around the peculiarities of each asset, calibrating our interventions to corporate assets regardless of context or sector of reference.
