✨ NFL Draft 2015 — Creative OVERVIEW In 2015, the NFL Draft returned to Chicago in celebration of its 50th anniversary—marking a historic moment for the league and the city. The project focused on establishing a comprehensive visual style guide to support branding across venues, fan experiences, and broadcast environments.
