This project was initiated by creative director Philip Corenerud. After his departure from the team I took over the design leadership role and we designed it with the help of Brand New School.

Veiled 
Realms


Creative direction for NY based mixed-media sculptor Palden Weinreb’s solo show in London enititled Veiled Realms. 





Inspired and informed by Buddhist thought and motifs, the artist’s three-dimensional works explore the idea of existence, focusing especially on one of the core teachings of Buddhism: the conscious detachment from the illusions of the earthly realm and the escape from samsara (the repeating cycle of life and death).

Protect This House means we don’t just celebrate the win, we celebrates the messy, tireless, up-before-dawn process that goes into winning.

An attitude best summarized in two words, F*ck Perfect. It’s an affirmation of our commitment to protect the grind that goes into greatness, our spiritual and tonal North Star.


If this design system visually represents the process of the team sport athlete, we must then further drill into what that process really means and what it looks like.

We break it down into 5 main pillars critical to team athlete success. These are Body, Mental Edge, Strategy, Technique and Theory. As we position each of these pillars in relation to the UA brand voice we see a few patterns emerge.

We’re using these 5 categories as a organizational system for our various design elements. The range of categorization assigns value to graphic elements from the gritty physicality of THE WORK, all the way to the planned, intentional, and polished elements of THE WIN.

We then combine these elements in ratios to create the desired effect. 
Photo Voice - The PTH design system is consistent of cooler tones of grey. For photo assets to work well with our graphics, finishing in a cool territory was recommended. We did develop lighting and style techniques for premium and low-fi shooting.

Design System Elements 

1. brutalist grid 
2. color palette 
3. typographic system
4. court inspired line elements
5. a 3D logo system
6. stickers and
7. custom textures


These were developed to create a flexible and expressive design language capable of sustaining an extended length of time and a large volume of products expressed across a broad range of channels.


 
Motion System - parallel to defining the design system we started to explore what it looked like in motion, across organic and paid social as well as broadcast.
