The Main visual design employs bold color contrasts, geometric collage compositions, and dynamic graphic elements to vividly convey the passion of an international dragon boat championship, along with the cultural vitality of Hualien. The design integrates elements of both traditional and contemporary aesthetics, highlighting the unique charm of Hualien as the host city.

Visual elements such as the sun, splashing  and waves, and the linear forms of dragon boat paddles symbolize Hualien’s deep connection with the ocean, reflecting the sporting spirit rooted in this land. Advancing in harmony with the rhythm of the tides, these elements also represent athletes from around the world gathering in Hualien, uniting through teamwork and perseverance to create moments of shared glory.

In terms of color application, the palette incoporates vibrant red–blue contrasts, the green inspired by the Shakadang River, and golden tones symbolizing honor. Vivid magenta and deep blue convey the intensity of competition and the profound depth of the ocean; the Shakadang River green echoes Hualien’s distinctive natural landscapes; and gold represents glory, evoking the shining moments when athletes reach the pinnacle of victory.
