Each January, Arctic Frontiers brings politics, business and science together in Tromsø to talk about the future of the Arctic. For the 2025 edition, we once again had the pleasure of designing the full visual identity for the conference.

For this year’s theme, "Beyond Borders," we developed a vibrant, animated topographic concept—an evolving 3D landscape made of layered shapes that gradually revealed symbolic forms. These visuals served as a metaphor for the complexity and depth of Arctic topics, as well as the idea of uncovering insight through dialogue and collaboration.

Over four days, the conference hosted:
• 6 Big Picture sessions
• 7 Science themes
• 41 side events
• 100+ journalists on-site
• Workshops, receptions, and networking spaces

We created animated openers and visual packages for each Big Picture session and science theme, as well as a range of prints, signage, ID cards, and all the screen content used throughout the venue. Our team handled everything from concept and direction to animation, layout and delivery—working across Blender, After Effects, and Premiere Pro to bring it all together.
