Title

Rebranding Egypytian National Olympic Committee

Student Status

Undergraduate

Abstract

The Egyptian National Olympic Committee is the face of Egypt in most important international sport events. Sports are one of the very few international platforms that the entire world can come on the same terms with. Creating a successful sports identity is just the tip of the iceberg that develops into creating a successful national identity. This project is the product of a lot of research and case studies of other national committees as reference in order to design a successful visual identity to represent the Egyptian committee. To support this visual structure, icons were designed to create a system of which the committee would represent their corresponding teams to have a complete and cohesive visual representation of the nation. The new identity is applied in this project on several mediums and products that the committee would later use. Like; medals, award ribbons, posters, t-shirts, pins, and a book documenting the 100 years of the committee
