Barça The Exhibition was an immersive exhibition celebrating FC Barcelona. I developed its visual identity and style guide, extending the visual language across promotional campaigns, the website, exhibition spaces, and audiovisual content.

A distinct identity within an iconic brand

The exhibition needed a visual identity that felt unmistakably connected to FC Barcelona while giving the travelling exhibition its own presence.

The challenge was to create a consistent visual language that could work across advertising, digital experiences, and physical spaces, while respecting the club’s established brand guidelines.

Building a visual language for the exhibition

I developed the exhibition’s visual direction around the club’s established identity, using its typography, colors, imagery, and graphic resources to create a distinctive visual language.

I also developed a dedicated style guide defining logo variations, composition rules, color and typography usage, textures, and image treatments. The guide established clear principles for adapting the identity across formats while maintaining visual consistency.

One identity, across every touchpoint

The visual identity extended to promotional artwork and the exhibition website, adapting to different formats while maintaining a recognizable look and feel.

I designed the campaign key visuals and their variations for different advertising needs, working within the club’s brand guidelines.

I also designed the desktop and mobile website as a flexible template for different markets, translating the visual identity into a digital experience that could be adapted with local exhibition details, content and booking information.

Bringing the exhibition to life

Working alongside the exhibition architect and content team, I developed visual concepts and graphic applications for the exhibition spaces, adapting the visual language to the content and character of each room.

I also created motion graphics for the exhibition and its promotional campaigns, extending the visual experience beyond static graphics and into moving imagery.
