Harvard University Athletics

Energizing Harvard’s Track and Field through color and typography

Albert H. Gordon Track contains a six-lane banked oval with an adjacent 80-yard sprint straight. The length of the track is 220 yards. The challenge for the design team was to revitalize the interior space with color, and brand elements, and highlight the historical achievements of Harvard’s athletes.

The design team developed unifying color stripes, custom record banners, and new designs for the track and adjacent spaces. The new art style was adopted by the client and applied to three other athletic arenas.
