Creating A Modern but Unmistakable African Identity.
This wasn’t just about logos or color schemes; it was about crafting a narrative. The visual identity had to echo the show's core values of authenticity, inclusivity, and innovation, while serving as a beacon for the emerging stars. Every element we created, from the star-infused logo to the color palette, patterns and visual style were inspired by Nigerian culture and was designed to reflect the journey—of the artists, the music, and the show itself. Our mission was to not just brand the show, but to tell the story of Afrobeats in a modern, compelling way, connecting its powerful past with an exciting future.
