Cristian Confalonieri, Creative Director of Studiolabo and former author of “Fuorisalone. The Boardgame of Milan Design Week” supports:“The board game is a sector, not only in Italy, in great turmoil. The project by a board game, it is in effect a design project, much more complex thanas it may seem.Game designers, graphic designers, usability, marketing, and communication experts work in symbiosis for months. We had the goal of creating an original game with an important visual support system that could evoke the many icons left us inherited from Leonardo da Vinci in a pop and light way. The game is a tool of story and very effective cultural transmission and we are convinced that products of this type can also achieve educational goals“.OMNIA is a Studiolabo edition produced in partnership with Tambù a Start-Up innovative in the BoardGames & Comics sector that has the mission of simplifying and create new tools that allow authors to express their creativity, making high-quality entertainment products.
