Superval is a festival of high school bands performing original music, held in Zagreb. It provides young musicians with an opportunity to present their original songs to a wider audience.
For the 2025 edition of the festival, we developed a visual identity based on an illustration that merges two heads—one human and one feline. This continues the cat motif featured in previous editions while reinterpreting it as a symbol of the transitional phase of growing up.
By combining the two characters, the illustration highlights the moment when young people are discovering their own identity, balancing playfulness with seriousness, and freedom with responsibility.
The graphic style draws inspiration from classic black-and-white printmaking and the aesthetic of the Zagreb School of Design, emphasizing the simplicity and expressive power of hand-drawn illustration. The visual identity communicates diversity, transformation, and the energy of young performers taking the stage before a wider audience for the first time.
