The challenge was to create a visual system that reflected both Nike’s energy and the host city’s character.
The logo concept captured themes of movement, energy, and transience, with dynamic forms symbolising constant progression and innovation. This was paired with an experiential design direction inspired by New York City’s metro system, a nod to the summit’s location and the idea of connection, flow, and navigation.
The design language referenced subway lines, grids, and transit graphics, giving the environment a distinctly urban rhythm. This translated into stage backdrops, wayfinding systems, and on-site installations that immersed attendees in a bold, kinetic experience. As a playful yet functional detail, we also designed custom metro cards for partners and attendees, tying the identity directly to the city’s culture and making the branding tangible.
