David Beckham founded the soccer club Inter Miami CF. Therefore, the Inter Miami logo boasts a stylish design befitting the soccer franchise’s “star” status. It possesses internal harmony, evident in symmetrical shapes and balanced colors. The Art Deco style evokes the city’s architectural heritage in which the club is situated.
Inter Miami is a professional soccer club based in the USA, competing in Major League Soccer since 2020. It was established in January 2018 and is located in Miami, Florida.
The club’s history began in 2012, when MLS Commissioner Don Garber intended to create a new franchise in Miami following the disbanding of the previous one. When David Beckham, who had the option to buy an expansion team for $25 million, retired, the League immediately made the offer.
By the end of 2013, Major League Soccer announced him as the potential owner of the new Miami team. Active negotiations with the celebrities’ representatives began in December of the same year. In February 2014, the League announced that the former soccer player would lead the franchise after addressing investment issues and stadium construction.
Four years later (in January 2018), the 25th “Miami” franchise was transferred to the “Miami Beckham United” group, which included David Beckham, Jorge, Jose Mas, Marcelo Claure, and Masayoshi Son. Beckham became a key figure.
The club’s full name, Internacional de Futbol Miami, was confirmed in September 2018 and is indicated on the logo. The unofficial name, “Inter Miami,” is a commonly used shortened version.
Meaning and History
The franchise’s logo appeared alongside its name. It’s designed in classic Art Deco traditions: sharp, straight lines, designer flair, and acute angles. It includes elements of an additional logo, such as a chevron for uniforms and stripes for caps.

2020 – today
The primary image of the emblem is two large herons standing back-to-back. One leg of each bird is straightened, and the other is crossed, forming an “M.” It depicts the team’s name in an uppercase letter with serifs. Between the herons, there’s a rising sun with seven-pointed triangular rays. Their number refers to Beckham’s number during soccer matches. Above them is the inscription “MIAMI”.
All central elements are placed on a chevron, surrounded by a dark medium-thickness band, where the club’s full name is written in uppercase. The year 2020 in Roman numerals, MMXX, is also present. This refers to the debut time of the franchise’s first season and the city’s location. The team’s primary colors are coal black, white, and powder pink, as it’s believed the emblem depicts flamingos rather than herons.
Font and Colors
The graphic symbol of Inter Miami comprises several geometric figures that form a complete composition. Two flamingos are located inside a rectangular shield with a sharp base. The heraldic element is superimposed on a black circle with a pink outline, slightly protruding beyond the edges. The club’s full name is written within a wide ring that serves as a frame.
Precision geometry is also maintained in other details. The birds’ legs are a combination of straight and broken lines that form angles and quadrilaterals. The silhouettes of the flamingos are symmetrical, as is the stylized sun, split vertically into two equal parts.
The long inscription denoting the sports organization’s status is set in a simple italic serif font. The city name also lacks serifs, but the letters in “MIAMI” are not as standardized as in “CLUB INTERNACIONAL DE FUTBOL.” At least, the creators initially designed the letter “A” using a broken line consisting of two segments, rather than a straight horizontal stroke.
The inscriptions on the ring frame and both birds are white. The other details, including the contours, two four-pointed stars, the sun, the word “MIAMI,” and the flamingo legs, are pink (#F7B5CD). This color combination is intentional, as the colors are visible against the black background (#231F20).
