The Challenge

Typically an annual event, this year was the first year back on since the start of the pandemic. Leadership expressed a desire for something bright and fun, as opposed to the usual moody, emotional look this Conference usually takes on.

First Concepts

Result

Leadership clicked with the idea for a simpler concept that could be used year to year. The design uses a very bright color palette which brought some life into the standard event space, as well as gave a happy & fun vibe for the attendees after a fairly gloomy year prior. The identity lent itself well to lighting design, a variety of social promotion and print design, creating a very cohesive look from start to finish.
