Loisaida Ladies Football Club
Brand Design + Art Direction + Apparel Design

Primary Logo
The primary logo combines the sub mark with the word mark to clearly communicate that Loisada Ladies FC is a female football team.

The submark was inspired by the typical beauty salon female iconography, seen heavily throughout the neighborhood, in combination with a starred soccer ball.
Wordmark
The word mark utilizes contrasting typefaces to hint at the club's aggressive yet supportive nature.
Color Palette
Inspired by the Puerto Rican Flag colors — a flag seen throughout the neighborhood due to the historical demographic of the neighborhood being of the Puerto Rican diaspora.

Typography
The headline typography juxtaposes an elegant italic font with a rugged sans-serif. The rugged typeface draws inspiration from the history of the neighborhood being resided by garment workers.

A whole package of graphic elements such as embroidery-inspired iconography and brand textures were made for the brand and utilized across social media posts.
