The FIFA World Cup Host City poster for Seattle features an orca tail coming out of the Elliott Bay designed using an Indigenous art style. The city's skyline sits far off in the background while a Washington State Ferry cruises into sight on the righthand side. A white illustration of Mt. Rainier crowns the orca tail, while a soccer ball flies over the tail like the whale has just kicked the ball. The entire poster is colored with a mix of varying shades of green — seafoam, lime, and forest.
