Washington Capitals
The Brief

Refresh, don't reinvent.

The Caps needed a season look that built on the core brand without abandoning it. Core games and alternates needed to read as one system, with enough flex to handle special-occasion nights.

Design once, deploy across an 82-game season.

Washington Capitals
The Approach

Core + alternates as a system.

We built a unified brand kit where alternates felt like an evolution of the core look, not a separate identity. Same visual language, different intensity.

Modular components covering intros, broadcast graphics, in-arena, and social, all editor-ready.
