KOBE STORKS is one of the clubs in the Japan Pro Basketball League and is known for winning the domestic B2 title. They had lost the excitement and vision to unite players and supporters and bring back glory. Our designers were tasked with reimagining KOBE STORKS as a modern, world-class club. The result is a new brand that is visually striking and expresses bold confidence. We will go to play with KOBE people and fans. KOBE, even in Japan, has a history and an exotic atmosphere. We have created a new brand that is striking, bold and expresses confidence to move forward with KOBE.

I am "Art director & Graphic designer". GWG is "graphic design company" based in Tokyo and Osaka. We handle wide range of projects from branding to visuals and products. Let's enjoy design!
