About Infinite Borders 品牌形象
Infinite Borders 係一套為三國時代策略遊戲而設計嘅品牌形象。品牌圖形源自名稱嘅象形文字，以及策略遊戲棋盤格局嘅意象。設計以漢代流行嘅黑、紅、白三色作為主色調，配以扁平化嘅書法筆觸作為輔助元素，再結合現代字體排印，構成一套有系統嘅扁平化視覺系統。呢個設計應用於數碼海報、用戶介面畫面同印刷品之上，可以跨渠道延伸應用，同時保持視覺上嘅一致性。

Press Kit
- Unique Properties
- Positioned "The Authentic and Passionate Three Kingdoms," the brand traces the pictographic characters of its name and combines them with the "grid square" impression from strategy games to derive its brand graphics. It extracts the popular colors of black, red, and white from the Han Dynasty as its primary colors. Flat calligraphic brushstrokes are used as auxiliary elements. By incorporating modern typography, the brand provides new cultural experiences for the Three Kingdoms era.

- Production Technology
- This design will be applied to digital posters, UI interfaces, and physical prints. By using a systematic, modern, and flat design, it ensures ease of extension for designers across various channels while maintaining overall brand visual consistency.
- Design Challenge
- To recreate an authentic impression of the Three Kingdoms, the design must have historical and cultural significance while embodying modern aesthetics and trends. Additionally, it needs to consider digital and print applications and ensure ease of extension for a global audience.
- Research
- By visiting museums of the Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms era, we studied artifacts' color schemes, textures, and other characteristics. We researched the age demographics and preferences of players, combining this with the game's own mechanics. Integrating these studies and research, we extracted pictographic characters and popular colors of the Han Dynasty, merging them with modern aesthetics to infuse new vitality into the traditional Three Kingdoms culture.
- Inspiration
- The Three Kingdoms period dates back 1,500 years. We have deeply studied the characters and colors from Han Dynasty culture, combining the "land grid" gameplay and the pictographic character of the "Shuai" logo to derive the square as the brand graphic. Using a design that appeals to younger and international aesthetics, we inject new cultural vitality into the Three Kingdoms and convey its charm to a broader global audience.
- Project Duration
- The project started its design phase in March 2023 and was completed in July 2023. It was officially launched in November 2023.
