Latin American Design Awards

LAD (Latin American Design) was created in 2012 as a platform to promote Latin American design. Over a decade later, it has become one of the region's most established design competitions, celebrating excellence among graphic design, illustration, animation, and visual arts.

The original challenge was to create a visual identity that could represent the diversity of Latin American cultures without favoring any single country. The brand needed to capture the region's creative energy while remaining fresh and contemporary.

FLEXIBLE IDENTITY SYSTEM FOR CONTINENTAL REACH FOR LAD AWARDS

MY ROLE

Designer on visual identity, brand applications and visual elements.

Rather than adopting a single corporate color, the design draws inspiration from the multicolored aesthetic of psychedelic tropical cumbia culture. The result was a flexible visual system that has proven adaptable enough to evolve with LAD's growth over the past decade.
