VEryNice students
2014
The preliminary phase of the project VEryNice students -called Phenomenology of student– investigated the world of university students in the area of the Venice lagoon to know the movements, habits, where and how they spend their time. Thanks to a hundreds of venetian students completed questionnaire, and to the data provided by the cultural association Metricubi, it was possible to understand and analyze how young people move to get to the lagoon and on the inside, but also from such aspects their daily lives are composed: the more populated areas, the most popular club and libraries, the problems encountered in their daily life in the lagoon.
We developed a sextodecimo brochure that represents in a visual way all the data we collected.

From this research, and personal experience as university students in Venice ourselves, it seemed interesting to develop a project that guide students that facing for the first time in the context of the lagoon, to show them how to move consciously their first steps in Venice, a fascinating and unique reality.
VEryNICE students, with its variations freetime, university and daylife, is an annual guide created by the students of the lagoon to the inexperienced freshmen just landed. Getting lost in this maze of streets is not easy and we know it well: this handbook is to help you learn about Venice and its habits, but the city is full of things to discover, do not stop here!
We also designed a map with all the places described on the books and on the back of it there is a useful calendar with all the main events occurring in Venice during the year.
