S.Pellegrino Launches 120 Year Anniversary - IED Young Talents Collaboration Project

UPDATE 30/10/2019: The digital exhibition by IED for S.Pellegrino’s 120 Year Anniversary is currently up and running on S.Pellegrino’s Instagram! Check it now and discover the amazing illustrations by the students of the design school for S.Pellegrino.

As the celebrations for S.Pellegrino’s 120 Year Anniversary continue around the world, and to mark this special year, the brand is proud to announce a unique collaboration with Istituto Europeo di Design (IED) for S.Pellegrino’s 120^th Anniversary.

Thanks to a select group of talented students from the prestigious design school, S.Pellegrino is reimagined into a series of illustrations that take you on a journey through the 120 year-old history of the brand. For this digital exhibition, students were asked to prepare a set of three artworks, for S.Pellegrino’s Instagram wall, with each set playing out a different element of the brand’s story. The illustrations run across four themes:

Iconic Imagery
From S.Pellegrino’s unmistakable red star and its famous sparkling bubbles, to the classic bottle, students have reimagined these iconic elements.

Food Experiences
The most precious moments in life almost always involve food, and where there is food, there is S.Pellegrino. The talented students of IED took this theme and explored these moments using their own visual language.

Core Values
Beauty, Flair, Passion, Togetherness, Authenticity… how can such values be interpreted visually? The young talents produced a series of illustrations that show us what they mean in the world of S.Pellegrino.

History & Heritage
The milestone of 120 years of S.Pellegrino was shown through images by the students, including the special diamond bottle that was created to celebrate the occasion.

About IED
IED was founded in Italy in 1966 and has several campuses across nine different cities. Each year thousands of students attend its design, fashion, visual communication and management courses that are held in its schools in Italy, Spain and Brazil.

The current project for S.Pellegrino involved select students from IED’s Milan and Turin campuses, collaborating with S.Pellegrino to create original illustrations for the iconic water brand.

This project will be launched on the 7^th October and run throughout the month. Take the journey with us as each day we reveal the special creations and the students behind each one, exclusively on S.Pellegrino’s official Instagram Page.
