DREAMING OF A SUMMER-WFC ART FAIR PROJECT |
做一夏梦-北京环球金融中心夏日艺术市集设计项目
I took on the role of a graphic designer for the bidding of the World Financial Centre (WFC) summer art fair in Beijing. It was aimed at developing a cohesive and diverse community for the clients of this leading commercial real estate. The event was targeted at the internal office staff and external visitors to join together and communicate with various contemporary artists and designers through attractive services and products. According to the brief, we proposed “Dreaming of a Summer" as the theme to match the light and playful tone of the event. I incorporated an international typographic style with geometric shapes to portray a dreamlike summer scenario abstractly. The gradient background left out a negative space that formed a face of a teenager with eyes closed, dreaming about a surreal and fancy summertime. The space could also be seen as a cloud or bubbles, just like what could be seen in a dream. All these abstract elements and playful colours mixed with a flush on the nose and beads of sweat vividly welcomed the audience to dream together and enjoy their fantastic summertime with creativity at WFC. Additionally, I used the braces as an iconic element
throughout the entire journey to represent the inclusiveness and diversity of this event and invite the audience to interact with the graphic materials.
为WFC北京环球金融中心夏日艺术市集竞标进行的视觉设计。活动旨为金融中心内各个公司员工及外部客群构建丰富、前沿的社群文化,凸显品牌价值,树立良好的品牌形象。本次活动邀请了涉及不同领域、潮流文化相关的艺术家、设计师进行交流,并提供优质的服务及产品。此次的视觉设计,以 “做一夏梦” 为主题,我运用了丰富的几何图形、线条和色彩搭配国际主义设计风格、极简、干净的字体板式,彰显活动的艺术属性,以抽象的形式描绘了一场轻松、梦幻的夏日梦境。在一片夏日感满满的霓虹渐变背景中,用白色的负空间隐约勾勒出一片似云朵、似泡沫的抽象图形,又或者它更像是一张青涩的脸庞,懵懂的少年,闭上双眼,鼻上热出醺醺的红晕,汗珠留下双颊,仿佛正在做一场关于夏天的梦,有风、有雨、有星星,无尽的想象与趣味正在悄然发生。用含蓄且抽象的视觉语言邀请人们来WFC “做一下梦”。之后,根据KV, 进行了一系列延展物料的设计,包括海报、导视、宣传互动物料,以及现场装置画面及互动的设计等。
