Overview
For the 18th International Conference on Naturalistic Decision Making, I developed a visual identity that brought together the conference's established branding and its 2026 host institution, the University of Virginia.
The identity was applied across conference materials, including the event program, promotional graphics, signage, and digital communications. The goal was to create a cohesive and recognizable experience across every touchpoint, from early promotion through the event itself.
Connecting the conference to UVA
The 2026 identity brought together the established Naturalistic Decision Making conference and its host institution, the University of Virginia.
The design incorporates UVA-inspired colors and institutional references while maintaining the conference's recognizable visual elements, creating an identity specific to the 2026 event.

Bringing the identity into the event
The visual identity extended across conference programs, promotional graphics, event signage, and digital communications.
Each application was designed to feel connected, creating a consistent visual experience from early promotion through the event itself.
