Casa Italiana Zerilli-Marimò at NYU is a sanctuary for modern Italian culture in the heart of New York City. With a legacy rooted in literature, cinema, philosophy, and art, the Casa has long served as a beacon of intellectual and cultural exchange. But its digital presence no longer lived up to the vibrancy of its real-world impact.
Takt partnered with NYU to reimagine the Casa’s website, transforming it from a basic archive into a living, editorially driven experience. The result is a refined and expressive digital home that blends academic integrity with cultural warmth. With elegant typography, intuitive structure, and a modular CMS designed for the Casa’s unique needs, the site serves scholars, students, and culture enthusiasts alike.
Built on WordPress with accessibility and performance at its core, the new casaitaliananyu.org is fast, compliant, and future-ready. Users can explore upcoming events, browse past lectures, read cultural essays, and dive into the multimedia archive with ease. It’s a seamless blend of form and function—quietly powerful, deeply human, and unmistakably Italian.
In a world where academic and cultural institutions often struggle to keep pace digitally, Casa Italiana’s relaunch shows what’s possible when strategy, design, and storytelling come together with purpose.
