There is one thing this world cup has taught me already about most designers
And this helps differentiates the OG designers from the normal ones
Now the World cup just started and a lot of designers are on it creating mad visuals, which is interesting.
I took my time to do a little bit of research about the entire stuff and I realized that most designers just wake up and start designing without much conceptualization and proper research.
Now the 2026 world Cup branding has some kind of minimalistic, futuristic retro feel in it's entirety.
This spoke from the logo to the stadiums itself.
Now checking the designs people are dishing out, most designers didn't even notice this part of the world cup
They just went ahead to design "what is fine".
Flying gradients everywhere, with some dark shades of neons.
And then on the other hand they're OG's like
@SafwanAlghazal,
@TariusNG etc. creating some consistent visuals.
You can't even tell if it's actual FIFA designs or not.
If you're a designer and you're reading this, learn to understand design concepts.
Because there is one design concept you have in mind that is very dope, doesn't mean it's the best concept for every design you want to do
Your welcome.
