Design Challenge
In the field of banking, speech events are usually more traditional and lack visual representations specifically designed for young people. It is rare to find such a youthful visual impression as this design, making it a positive attempt and exploration in the realm of banking speech event visuals.
Research
The design of the main visual for the event took into full consideration the adaptation to various application scenarios in the speech contest. Corresponding design extensions were made for event posters, the speech venue, and outdoor promotions, ensuring that both speakers and audience members can have a visually appealing experience across media, livestreaming, and on-site presence.
Inspiration
In this design, specific elements are incorporated: the metaphorical representation of cultural heritage through the absorption of nutrients by tree roots, the expression of intangible cultural transmission through transparent materials, and the analogy of a microphone to a tree trunk to symbolize the dissemination of speeches, conveying rich implications. The design has a strong visual impact that effectively captures the attention of young people and is well understood.
Project Duration
The project started its design phase in April 2022 and was completed in June 2022. It was officially released in June 2022 as well.
Operation Flow
Speech events are usually more traditional and lack visual representations designed. It is rare to see a visual impression that is as youthful as this design concept. This is a positive attempt and exploration in the realm of banking speech event visuals. With CZBank's strategic shift towards targeting young people as their customer base, the application of this main visual for the event has gained identification from young individuals.
