What the client needed

My part of the project

Concept

The inspiration for this logo came from the vibrant colors and layered textures of plastic packaging—materials that are visually striking yet symbolize one of today’s most urgent environmental challenges. By drawing from these forms, I wanted the design to reflect both the complexity of plastic pollution and the invisible threat of microplastics that now permeate our ecosystems.

The circular shape of the logo represents the principles of the circular economy and sustainability. It is a reminder that materials should not simply reach an end of life, but instead be part of a continuous loop of reuse, recovery, and regeneration. The movement within the circle echoes the idea of transformation—turning a problem into a solution through responsible design and innovation.

Visual Touchpoints

In addition to the logo, I developed a cohesive visual identity for the conference, including the Save the Date announcement, posters, roll-up banners, and supporting communication materials. Each piece follows the same conceptual direction, combining bold colors with clean, modern design to strengthen the message of environmental awareness and sustainable action.

Additional Project Info

PLASYS24 was a three-day Global Plastic Pollution Systems Symposium, that aspired to advance the collective understanding of plastic pollution and to discuss preventative and circularity solutions. Through inter-disciplinary and systems approaches, PLASYS aimed to showcase and reflect upon the latest scientific developments and to inform the science-policy interface. Following open-science principles, delegates shared breakthroughs across the plastics lifecycle, including research that incorporates economic activity; environmental media (water, land, air) and the sources, transportation pathways and fates of plastic pollution at multiple scales (nano to planetary).
