WHO IS BK?
SOME FUN FACTS
I am half deaf. I lost my hearing in a swimming accident when I was seven years old.

My name is Brooklyn King, but I got the nickname BK from fifteen years of softball. Brooklyn doesn’t really fly off the tongue, so my name had to be abbreviated. Yes, I do get Burger King jokes all the time, but I guess I’ll let folks have it their way.

I was born on Fat Tuesday (Mardi Gras), and it’s been my favorite holiday ever since.
The only bone I’ve ever broken is my right foot big toe, and I broke it by falling down the stairs.

THE ASTERISK
I use this symbol within my branding 1. For my love of typography! I think that’s one of the things I love most in design, and for some reason, I’m particularly drawn to asterisks (even though I don’t use them correctly half the time) 2. The asterisk is a reference mark used to note a hypothetical. The asterisk offers clarity! It’s versatile, attention grabbing, and a symbol of expansion; and 3. The word asterisk derives from the Greek word “asteriskos” meaning “little star” (which is the cutest thing ever!)

Combining my two great passions—Graphic Design and Motorsports—has led me to a new creative challenge: designing posters for each Formula 1 race weekend of the 2025 season. With the sport’s global reach, I’m creating artwork that reflects the unique character of each circuit, from track-specific designs to reimagining iconic pop culture moments, such as Oppenheimer and Dune 2.
Year of the Horse was created for the Chinese Grand Prix, held in Shanghai, China. With the newest season speeding out the gate, I found it fitting to incorporate this year’s Lunar New Year animal. The infamous stallions are on the prowl with Sir Lewis Hamilton gaining his first Ferrari podium and Charles shaping up for his World Championship run. I also believe the “Silver Arrows” will do everything in their power to keep that from happening.
