Lombardy stem by Noorda, Sambonet, Tovaglia, Munari, 1974.
A supergroup of milanese graphic designers, Bob Noorda, Roberto Sambonet and Pino Tovaglia, headed by Bruno Munari as coordinator, were to develop the Lombardy Region symbol. The final choice was a petroglyph in Val Camonica, the so-called Camunian Rose. The project relation reads: “With the help of these rock drawings we get to know the beliefs, uses and costumes of the Cammuni, the ancient inhabitants of Lombardy, who were witnesses and messengers of foundamental phases of the european civilization from Neolithic to Bronze Age”.
Design is fine. History is mine.
