The problem
Trenord is a regional company of rail transportation which covers Lombardy pathways.
Through our research we discovered that the travelers have a negative sentiment towards the brand, due to the recurring delay of the trains. The negative perception is so high that Trenord is inextricably associated to the concepts of delay, stress, hurry, discomfort, but also lack of communication with the company and the staff, bad manteinance, misinformation, inefficiency mostly during the rush-hour.
Project concept
It is needed to make the most of the brand's best characteristic, as: capillarity of the railways, numerous exchange points with other public transportations, eco-sustainability, security, a service available 7/7 days a week, cheap prices, comfort.
In the end, we preferred to work with Trenord's strong presence on the territory, with it being the most diffused brand of railways in Lombardy.
The goal
Change of perspective: to make the routine become a moment of relaxation, to turn rush and stress into a pause, discomfort into comfort.
Audience
Tourists and commuters, students or workers.

Traditional posters are collocated in all stations during all the crossmedial strategy.
The sizes are offered in different sizes ( sizes depend from the support of the poster itself).

Trenord makes come true the original strategy proposed by our team: they modified the copy and launched a call to action on Instagram to photograph the wonderful Lombardy region, thereafter erasing the negative view of the company with the suggested ashtag #trenordfreetime
