Mixing Fantasy and Reality in Aracataca, Colombia

For more on life in Aracataca and Gabriel García Márquez, explore the Aracataca location page.

Aracataca, Colombia, is a place where reality and fantasy seem to blend. Nobel Prize-winning writer Gabriel García Márquez was born here, and it was the inspiration of Macondo, the fictional town in his masterpiece, One Hundred Years of Solitude.

“It’s a small town submerged in its own history. People still live from old traditions,” says Wilfrido Mercado (@wilfridomercado), a local resident who says every time he travels and feels nostalgic, he opens one of García Márquez’s novels. “Reading his books, I can remember the smell of wet soil in Aracataca on any April’s afternoon.”

Life in Aracataca runs at a different pace. People bathe in the river and take a long nap after lunch to withstand the severe heat. “In Aracataca anything can happen, any lie can become a truth,” says Wilfrido.

Packaging and visual identity for ili_ili lamps by Šesnić&Turković

"Ili_ili is a system of modular lights which gives the user the freedom to assemble a lamp of unique shape and color. Our colleagues and friends from Grupa Products asked us to create a visual identity and packaging for the lamps. The design process was challenging and complex, as we wanted simple and efficient packaging for thousands of different combinations.”

Šesnić&Turković studio was founded in 2006, and has been working in the field of graphic design and visual communications ever since. They approach every project with the same fundamental mission – find the best creative solution, which will give it its communicative strength, longevity, and set it apart from the competition. They apply that approach in all fields of work: visual identities, signage, exhibition designs, stand designs, designs of publications, advertisements and promo materials, designs for gift shops etc.

KINO | Take Away & Pattern by Gustav Karlsson

SUDOLAMIATRICOLORE è il nome di una campagna che cerca di promuovere l'uso della nuova maglia che indosserà la nazionale italiana di calcio nel mondiale di Brasile 2014. Il progetto nacque riprendendo il gesto del giocatore quando si trova stanco dopo uno sforzo fisico. Il gesto di passarsi il braccio sulla fronte per togliersi il sudore permette di creare di dipingere la bandiera italiana nella fronte dei tifosi attraverso un bracciale con un timbro integrato . Il bracciale è un oggetto per celebrare e incoraggiare la partecipazione degli azzuri nel mondiale.
