Branding
I designed the logo and overall branding for the CS75. The logo was created based on the United Nations SDG wheel, the six bigger pieces were the SDGs that were reviewed in HLPF 2019.
Exhibition
The exhibition was the main exhibition in the CS75, highlighting the nine main areas of ESCAP’s work. It was very popular among delegates.

Exhibition Concept
My colleagues and I developed the idea of using graphics as the main component, where one icon was chosen to represent one area, and the icon was filled with different graphics that were related to our work. For example, a water droplet icon was used for “Management of Natural Resources”, and it was filled with graphics like solar panels and resources efficiency index for our work on environment as well as marine life for our work on Ocean Accounts.
Collaterals
I also designed a whole suite of collaterals of the commission, other products included banner, media wall, badge, name card, rostrum banner, pull-up banner, invitation card, welcome poster (photo on the right) and menu design.
