Luce Gentile is an external lamp for a video-intercom system. The lamp incorporates a reflective surface that illuminates the face of a person in front of the doorbell, providing soft and gentle lighting without causing discomfort or blinding effects. Additionally, the design emphasizes the visitor’s need to feel comfortable and at ease when interacting with the camera.

The primary objective of the lamp’s design is to enhance the visibility and clarity of the visitor’s face without causing any visual discomfort. Another significant aspect of the lamp’s design concept is its consideration of the visitor’s comfort during the interaction with the camera. Understanding the potential uneasiness or self-consciousness a person may feel when being recorded, the lamp aims to create a welcoming and calming environment.

Furthermore, the external lamp is designed to be aesthetically pleasing and complementary to the overall design of the intercom system. It integrates seamlessly with the existing architecture and blends in with its surroundings during daylight hours and provides a practical and elegant solution for improving identification and maintaining a welcoming environment at the entrance.

Communication strategy:
Since Luce Gentile is a lamp that involves the user and here people are at the center of the entire creative process, I decided to base my communication on the social impact that this lamp could have, involving those who approach the project for the first time. I also wanted to emphasize the name of the lamp, which evokes kindness and an invitation to embrace it.
That’s how I came up with flyers, available to anyone who wants to take part in my communication initiative.
