Sant'Orso 1003 Fair Posters
Poster for the millenary Saint-Ours Fair, Italy.
A poster design competition for the Fiera di Sant'Orso — an ancient artisanal fair in Val d'Aosta, Italy, celebrating its 1,003rd edition. The challenge was creating a visual identity that honoured over a millennium of craft tradition while feeling contemporary enough to attract modern visitors.
I designed a series of five poster variations exploring different approaches to representing the fair's heritage and artisanal character.
Five approaches to a thousand-year-old fair
Each poster variation took a different angle on the same brief: how to represent an artisanal fair that has been running for over a thousand years. The series explored typographic treatments, illustrative styles, and compositional approaches — from heritage-focused to contemporary — to find the right balance between tradition and accessibility.
