Online community competition during European Championship Soccer
Online community competition during European Championship Soccer
Dutch Soccer theme
With a European Championship Soccer coming up, Rotterdam (The Netherlands) based Advertising Agency 105, asked Freelance Senior Designer Michiel Nagtegaal to provide a visual design for a website with a Dutch soccer theme.
Online competition
The KNVB (Royal Dutch Soccer Association) was asked to be the main sponsor for this community website, called Oranjestad (Orange Town). As orange is the main colour of the Dutch Soccer Team, Dutch neighbourhoods and cities are coloured orange during an European or World Soccer Championship.
The idea behind the project was to make an online competition between Dutch cities being the most soccer-minded town.
Art direction and Visual Design
Because of the importance of the colour orange in Dutch soccer communication the website was obliged to use orange as the most prominent color. Together with a visual of the green grass of a soccer field the right atmosphere was created easily. As a finishing touch some photography of Dutch soccer supporters was added for party-inspiration.
