Sparking community awareness

We use relational art as an instrument for developing a sense of community.

We build and carry out projects that spark a sense of community among groups of people. Wherever there is the possibility to create or enhance connections, like at artistic festivals or within companies, we intervene.

What can we do for you?

We find creative
solutions that come from people.

Relational art has an untapped potential that can be applied to different social ecosystems ranging from artistic organizations to companies, institutions and even whole territories. By listening to clients and analyzing their needs, we design appropriate and innovative solutions.

OUR VISION

Socially aware individuals
create smart groups. Smart groups generate results and well-being.

Our projects are tools that activate, develop, and reshape thinking in order to impact systems and those within them. We strive to stimulate conversations between people about the consequences of their actions on the surrounding environment. We measure success on our ability to create a lasting impact; our tools provide clients with strategies that allow for the continuation and evolution of these discussions even without our presence.

who we are

We are an organization born in the world of relational art. Our research has expanded into the corporate field and in the field of social innovation.

In physics, Effetto Larsen, or the Larsen Effect, is the transmission and infinite amplification of a sound through the use of equipment in an audio system. For us, it is a metaphor for communication; actively engaging with thoughts, experiences and behaviors allows them to be effectively spread and reflected in communities. We believe in relational art as an instrument to intercept and respond to society’s needs, creating the space and time for individuals to live a collective experience. In this environment, it becomes possible to workshop alternatives, activate the imagination, and encourage people to explore new possibilities for themselves and their communities.

If you’re looking for innovation, do you think you will find it by working with the same providers?

Why should
you invest on the sense of community

To increase engagement, which in turn increases a sense of empowerment and resourcefulness

To develop a sense of belonging to the organization through shared company values and decreased micromanagement

To reduce internal conflicts, and improve communication abilities

For an employer branding that is shared, reflected, and magnified by colleagues

To make meetings more efficient thanks to a shared alignment of day-to-day goals and objectives

To reduce the frequency and costs of turnovers

WHAT OUR CLIENTS HAVE SAID

Our collaboration with Effetto Larsen was based on inclusion and diversity, along with the curiosity about what distinguishes our workers from one another. The combination and intermingling of different expertises allowed for the development of unique, transportable, and recreatable products while generating a collaborative, creative and effective environment. The possibility to have an outsider’s point of view on specific issues helps to broaden our horizons and allows us to view innovation in a different way than before. This is what we managed to do thanks to our collaboration with Effetto Larsen.

With them, you never stop learning!

I met EffettoLarsen purely by chance as I was attracted by their simple and very informative website; we were looking for a partner to develop the communication of the start up where I work. We wanted a partner that would be a bit “disruptive” when compared to competitors; they would not just be reactive, but also proactive when it came to our needs and would stand by us as only a real partner knows how to do. We met multiple times before starting and collaborating together and they were always available and transparent. Curious and open, creative and imaginative, sensitive and attentive, EffettoLarsen knows how to listen and makes you see things from different angles to help you find the right solution.
