L’ISOLA DEI BACI

L’Isola dei Baci is a short social-erotic novel written in 1918 by Marinetti and Bruno Corra.

Rich with satirical humour, the book reflects the Futurist ideology of the time, particularly in its critique of anti-war intellectuals.

For this redesign, I aimed to create a contemporary and playful visual language that contrasts with Marinetti’s provocative political views. I digitised and incorporated original illustrations by Depero, using them as a cohesive thread to tie together the book’s historical and thematic elements while introducing a fresh, engaging aesthetic.
