Space Race :: the NIKE project

tomer :: this was for a Nike commission of a 16x24 poster to correspond with the concept of Space Race 2020. how would the idea of running will be experienced in the future? trying to get to a physical (rather than conceptual) solution, I looked for an image that also related to speed in a futuristic setting.


there is a very familiar image of a space shuttle launching away-- a blinding light followed by a smoke trail aiming at space-- but what if this trail was coming from an astronaut's boot, instead of the shuttle's engine?


and to turn this into a race, two more runners joined the setting, all going in full steam.



since this aimed to be a poster the colors needed to be simple, dividing the space in a clear way. I wanted a cool pallet for this outer space experience.


and here is the final. decided to go with an even cooler palette trying to get that metallic edge, taking the humanity out of the equation as much as possible.
