A communication and narrative project for Istorima, a non-profit organization and a massive audio arrchive, dedicated to collecting and sharing personal stories, focused on making spoken narrative visible, relatable, and meaningful to a wider audience.

Istorima operates in a sensitive and content-rich space, where the value lies in real human stories.

The challenge was to:

• Communicate the importance of storytelling without oversimplifying it

• Engage audiences without losing authenticity

• Create a clear narrative direction in a platform built on diverse, personal experiences

• Compose a modern, visually striking identity for the brand, that can attact multiple audiences, without overshadowing the stories in the spotlight

People connect with stories, not merely as content, but as shared experience.

The power of storytelling lies in recognition: seeing parts of yourself in someone else’s story.

Position Istorima as a space where individual stories become collective meaning.

Shift communication from presenting stories as isolated narratives to framing them as part of a shared human experience.

• Crafted compelling narratives and taglines to encapsulate the project's mission

The creative positioning of Istorima successfully presented the organization as a bridge between generations, emphasizing the importance of personal narratives in understanding national identity. The initiative garnered significant attention, leading to widespread participation and the preservation of countless invaluable stories.
