Beyond letterforms, symbolically, the design system embraces an omnipresence of arches, marigolds, and praying hands — religious iconography important to the client, Lauren M. Pacheco and Peter Kepha, given their prominence throughout Chicano and lowrider culture symbolizing a celebration of faith, life, and death. The visual identity comes to life with purpose by featuring Slow & Low’s world-renowned and emerging photographers. The photography gave the design system power, by going beyond showing the stunning, lowrider cars and spotlighting the individuals in Chicago’s lowrider community.

Colorful event wristbands and lanyards with elaborate gothic text on a black background. Various colors include green, blue, and orange. Two lanyards have black and gradient cards attached, labeled "Exhibitor" and "Staff."
