Truly Alien
Alienware - Retail Visual Identity
Dell Technologies (Alienware) & Fitch (now Landor)
Challenge
Reintroduce Alienware’s retail presence to align with the debut of the “Legend ID”—a complete redesign of the brand’s gaming ecosystem. The task was to create a refreshed visual identity for retail environments that honored Alienware’s passionate legacy while reflecting its evolved, future-facing aesthetic. The system needed clear guiding principles to ensure cohesion and to visually connect the science, design, and performance that define the brand.
Solution
I developed a new Retail Visual Identity grounded in four core design pillars— Bold, Focused, Future Minimal, and Premium. These pillars acted as strategic filters for every graphic and environmental decision, ensuring the retail system both celebrated Alienware’s heritage and embraced its next chapter. A signature hexagon graphic became a central motif, illuminated with intentional lighting and positioned beneath or behind products as a symbolic marker of high performance. The result was a cohesive, elevated retail expression that matched the ambition of the redesigned Alienware ecosystem.
