Red Bull Music Festival is a series of annual music festivals across the globe and is amongst Istanbul’s leading musical events. This year the festival spanned the course of 15 days, with 5 concept nights at Istanbul’s best venues and countless events inside Red Bull House of Music – half a month of music taking over the city. With this idea in mind, we designed a multi-layered communication campaign that investigated this question: “What happens when music takes over the city?”

The city and its residents shift, their attitudes change. Overcome with music, the city refracts into a heightened state. This is the feeling we echoed in our designs.

What happens when music takes over Istanbul? We decided to view the city through a filter of music, and designed key visuals that captured that encounter. We designed visual sets to represent each concept night.

 

As a festival that spanned the course of half a month across countless events, it had very distinct communication needs. We designed modular key visual system to meet them, and to amplify the festival identity.

 

The key visual system meets master key visuals with concept-night and artist specific key visuals, creating a rich and dynamic visual world.
