Competition Graphics
Creating compelling competition boards is as much an art of composition and communication as it is about the graphics themselves. In a competitive setting, the layout must do more than showcase visuals — it needs to guide the juror’s eye, build a narrative, and clearly express the underlying design concept.
Effective boards often combine diagrams, process progressions, and annotated visuals that unfold the story of the project step by step. Every element — from typography and color to image scale and spatial hierarchy — contributes to how the concept is received and remembered.
Below are examples from two distinct architectural competitions, each with a unique visual strategy tailored to its audience and submission criteria.
