description The design linked to the identity of places is an activity of particular interest for the design discipline, especially in its narration and value communication process addressed to a broad public. The design actions take place in a context of great complexity regarding the stratification of meanings and pre-existing visual systems, confronting very different territorial scales (from the nation to the single typical product). The experimentation described in the contribution presents a potential methodology for defining a scalable and multimodal territorial identity. This methodology, applied to a reference territorial context, is designed with tools specifically developed to counter the widespread fragmentation of communication, which usually determines situations of poor recognisability and strategic effectiveness.   Article info Received: 07/09/2024; Revised: 09/10/2024; Accepted: 10/10/2024
