Abstract

A case study was conducted to investigate the characteristics of the visual components affecting the integrated identity design of Winter Olympics for its establishment. The targets of the investigation were limited to the Winter Olympics held after 2010, including the Vancouver, Sochi, and Pyeongchang Winter Olympics. The first survey investigated the characteristics of the visual components, and the second survey analyzed the design characteristics, including connectivity, variability, expandability, and connectivity and could draw the following results. The integrated identity of Winter Olympics maintained the connectivity, providing the integrated recognition of visual components, and there was a variability according to its use. In addition, connective images were maintained with each other. However, it was noted that there was little expandability utilized flexibly according to the applied media in the emblem and slogan even in the various changes. Hopefully, these results will be utilized as the basic data for the development of integrated identity strategies, effective for the production of the design of the emblem of the Olympics in the future.

동계올림픽의 통합 아이덴티티 디자인 정립을 위해 영향을 미치는 시각적 구성요소의 특성을 알아보고자 사례연구를 실시하였다. 조사 대상은 2010년 이후 열린 밴쿠버, 소치, 평창 동계올림픽으로 한정하였다. 1차 조사에서는 시각적 구성요소의 특징을 살펴보고, 2차 조사에서는 디자인의 특성인 일관성, 가변성, 확장성, 연계성을 분석하여 다음과 같은 결과를 도출할 수 있었다. 동계올림픽의 통합 아이덴티티는 시각적 구성요소들의 통합적인 인식을 주는 일관성을 유지하고 있었으며, 사용에 따라 가변성을 보였다. 또한 서로간의 연계적인 이미지를 유지하였다. 그러나 다양한 변화 속에서도 적용매체에 따라 유연하게 활용되는 확장성은 엠블럼과 슬로건에서 미비한 것을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 결과들이 향후 올림픽 엠블럼 디자인 제작에 효과적인 통합 아이덴티티 전략수립을 위한 기초자료로 활용이 되기를 바란다.
