TRIO Festival

How can we make our society more inclusive? How can we open up cultural life for people with disabilities?

TRIO is a festival celebrating inclusivity, music, performance, and arts without barriers. Initiated by Lebenshilfe Lörrach, its mission is to enable people with disabilities to actively participate in cultural life.

Task
Conceptualize and develop a visual language for the festival’s public communication.

Outcome
Using playful typographic building bricks as a basis, we created a versatile and flexible visual language. The design plays with color, strong typographic statements and dynamic and weightless compositions. The festival’s website became the central platform showcasing over 70 events by people with disabilities held over a period of 12 days in Germany, Switzerland and France.

Following a successful opening festival in 2024, TRIO now evolves into a hub and a network connecting people with disabilities to the cultural scene. The team consults and shares their insights on how to implement true accessibility in public and cultural spaces.
