The Brief: Capture physical movement. Embrace human touch. Welcome everyone.
ODC is a contemporary dance institution rooted in San Francisco. It needed a new identity worthy of its unique voice and restless spirit. Born from the movement of paper lines and shapes moving through three-dimensional space, the identity curves and twists like a dancer. The new visual system unites three ODC organizations with radically different audiences—a professional dance company, a community-based school, and a performing arts theater—within one strong vision.
