Víkingur Reykjavík
Founded in 1908, Víkingur is the second oldest sports club in Iceland, boasting a rich heritage and a recent legacy of success that inspired a modernization of its visual identity. To eliminate decades of inconsistent variations in the club's iconic 1933 logo, the redesign establishes a single, definitive expression that honors its historic character while securing a consistent brand for the future. By drawing from the logo's natural evolution over the past century, the updated mark refines key features and sharpens the color palette to feel more modern and digitally native. Alongside this primary logo, a simplified alternative shield—or "V"—was developed without the internal stripes and ball, offering greater flexibility and clarity across applications while remaining unmistakably Víkingur.
