American Eagle

Live Your Life

Reviving the American Eagle manifesto through thoughtful type and identity design for a global campaign.

Overview

To help launch American Eagle’s refreshed brand platform, we partnered with Los Angeles-based creative agency Acre to carve out an iconic identity that has quickly cemented itself as a modern classic. The revival of the 20-year-old slogan Live Your Life marks a return to form for the brand. More than just a campaign, this revival is a foundation designed to endure for years to come.

Typography

To accompany the identity’s lockup, we developed a typographic system that blends the warmth of a heritage-inspired serif with the versatility of a classic grotesk. The pairing strikes a balance between nostalgic Americana and a modern classic.
