The visual profile for the Oslo Jazzfestival 2021 is designed by Oslo based designer Nick Alexander.

We asked him to share his thoughts on the profile:

"The visual profile for Oslo Jazzfestival 2021 is based around the idea of Jazz music and improvisation. Looking at a Jazz quartet and how they work both together and individually to create a musical landscape. Drawing comparisons between the visual placement of the letters in the profile and how they collaborate in the same way as musicians collaborate for a live performance." 

"The spaces created by the J A Z Z letters can be compared to the spaces and placements of musical notes. Experiments with pitch, tone, flavour, contrast, depth, friction, scale. The fun and eye-catching profile will be present on all platforms and promotions related to this years festival."
