Ziare was tasked with creating Basketball shirts for Nike. Ziare wanted to turn a simple and clever idea into an excellent project that took the brand to the next level. Each elite NBA player was represented by their brand logo.
Before Ziare started the design, he created a quick rough sketch. He stylized the Kobe logo to achieve a geometric prism effect and used a reference photo to sketch Kobe's portrait. Lastly, he added the finishing touches by applying the Kobe logo over his face to get a good feel of how the final outcome would look.
Nike's basketball target audience is male and female but mostly males that love watching basketball.
Mood board for color schemes and style.
The Production
After Ziare finished the final sketches & research, he began bringing the vision to life.

Kobe Bryant's color palette: Ziare decided to use 3 colors, purple, pink and black with different shades of each color.

Once the imagery was laid out, the logo was applied to Kobe’s face in different sizes and colors.
