Logotype

Sport, energy
and excellence for all

Following the customer’s request, I began the process of creating the logo, respecting the visual identity of the range. I then developed the orientations and favicon using colors such as electric cyan and grayish black to evoke the aquatic and crossfit universe. The lightning bolt symbolizes the energy needed to meet the challenges proposed, while the choice of the C for the favicon refers to the circularity of the workshops.

Once the logo had been validated, we worked together on the design of the different workshop levels, their conditions and their names:

  • Beginner workshop : ACT Begin
    A 45-minute session in which teams have to complete a predefined course as quickly as possible.
  • Intermediate workshop: ACT Boost
    A 45-minute session during which teams must complete a circuit as many times as possible within the allotted time.
  • Expert workshop: ACT Beast
    A course that evolves with each lap, to push your limits in 45 minutes.
