The 2018 Nike “Run” Campaign is a Campaign that sheds light on female empowerment. This Campaign’s motive is to encourage women to achieve their dreams by taking on new challenges and conquering personal goals.

Inspiration

Being an avid runner myself, I am all too familiar with the feeling of when you are in the peek of your run, your blood is pulsing through your veins, and your heart and mind are working in tandem to get you to the finish line. I used this feeling to power my design in hopes of creating a visual that would communicate this same sense of strength.


Meaning

The wordmark “Run” takes on a fluid, swift motion and is created with red shoelaces. The color red in the shoelaces is symbolic for coursing blood and increased heart rate. The color and shape come together to act as a metaphorical representation for power, determination, and agility.
