To mark its 75th anniversary, the Dubrovnik Summer Festival will unveil a new look designed by visual communication designer Zoran Đukić. Following the "New Citizens" and "Between the Stones" themes, the latest concept is "Horizon."
Drawing from the previous color palette and re-illuminating that omnipresent, ephemeral phenomenon often overlooked, Đukić spreads the sunset horizon across all festival materials, capturing the magic of that fleeting moment and extending it throughout the summer.
The horizon at dusk represents a visible but intangible, almost non-existent boundary between day and night, between sky and sea, known and unknown—a point in time and space that signifies change. At that special moment, the sun colors everything in its crimson hues—the sea, the city, and the people—solemnly announcing its departure and yielding the stage to the night, its mystique, its festivities, its lightness. It is at this moment that the performances of the Summer Festival begin, describes the designer.
Zoran Đukić is a visual communication designer with over 15 years of experience, specializing in creating thoughtful and innovative visual identities, publications, and exhibitions for a wide range of clients in the cultural sector. He is the founder and head of the studio đkć d.o.o., and he particularly enjoys designing visual identities and theater posters.
