Overview

Two boxing arenas, one visual language.

Two projects from the same year: a live mapping show for the Global Boxing Forum and an arena concept for the World Boxing Super Series.

At the Global Boxing Forum in Yekaterinburg we turned the arena into one screen. Content ran on the circular truss over the ring, on tall vertical banners and on kinetic triangles, and it told one story: boxing unites the world. Golden low-poly statues of the legends — Muhammad Ali, Oleksandr Usyk, Manny Pacquiao, Kostya Tszyu — rose on the banners, and the logos of the four sanctioning bodies broke into particles and merged into one stream.

The same year we designed an arena concept for the World Boxing Super Series and its Muhammad Ali Trophy: a circular LED crown over the ring, a cage of light beams and giant trophy replicas. It exists as a previz — a full arena walk-through from the first bell to the trophy.

Design

Legends, cut in low-poly gold.

Every statue started as a character sheet: the pose, the face, the pedestal.
