Time for my next entry: REYKJAVIK 2034! The design features abstract figures of the gold aurora borealis (rays) and the blue mountains and icefields (pyramid-shaped crystal) to evoke the concept of converging fire (volcanoes, aurora borealis) and ice (glaciers, subarctic climate), elements characterizing Icelandic geography. Following are the applications:

Here's my entry for NAIROBI 2036! The design is inspired by the beaded collar necklace traditionally worn by the Maasai people in Kenya, its roundness emphasizing the worldwide scope of the Olympic Games. The triangular beads (20 in number) and bordering beads (36, excluding the intervening elements) symbolize the year of hosting the Games, 2036. A red triangular bead borrowed from the logo is placed in the midst of the wordmark, signifying the prospective of peace and prosperity in the world through sport. Now, a few applications:

After uploading the image to Imgur, right-click that image post and select "Open image in new tab". Copy and paste that image URL from the new tab to the text box. This link would automatically change into that image in the text box itself, unless settings have been modified otherwise. Have you or @Anthony tried this measure? -

Here's mine for Milan-Cortina 2026! The logo takes inspiration from the Art Deco movement that flourished in Italy beginning in the early 20th century. Following from behind the contour of the letters on the wordmark are specific abstract representations of the Milan Cathedral (blue) and the Alps (green) that include the Dolomites, near which Cortina d'Ampezzo is located, as well as the design of the emblem (red) for the 1956 Winter Olympics hosted there. -

This took me the longest, from concept to completion! ENTRY #4 is... CAIRO 2032!! The logo features a stylized white "sun", inspired by Coptic origin of the name of Cairo -- Kahira, which means "land of the sun". It also contains the name of the city written in Arabic (see photo below, apparently not my official submission for Cairo 2032). The three colors blue, yellow, and purple represent the core Olympic values -- excellence, friendship, and respect, respectively. -

ENTRY #3! Heading to summer... NEW ORLEANS 2032!! The logo is a stylized representation of the fleur-de-lis, a symbol based on the Iris versicolor species that is symbolic to New Orleans, Louisiana and other places with history of French settlement. The three petals take the form of tongues of fire, symbolizing the Olympic flame. The blue ribbon in this context is not only reminiscent of the finish line ribbon, associated with foot races that have persisted throughout Olympic Games history, but also the Mississippi River, along which New Orleans is located. -

ENTRY #2! BUCHAREST 2030!! Inspired by the Romanian peony (Peonia tenuifolia), one of the floral species considered emblematic to Romania, the logo also contains, at the center, a brush stroke style representation of the map of Romania (gold in color), including the capital Bucharest (turquoise in color) on its very location. -

Here's my (perhaps, official) ENTRY #1! DARMSTADT 2030!! The logo features a landmark attributed to Darmstadt--the Hochzeitsturm, or "Wedding Tower"--through its "five-fingered" roofing, which has served as the seat of "contemporary art and culture" in the city. The "five fingers" detail is then applied into the illusion of a snowflake, reminiscent of winter, and a cube, oriented asymmetrically to convey the sense of motion, dynamism, and progression. -

Ahhh!!! Medical clerkship duty recently has got me missing a great deal! Good thing this comp's extended! -
Just got my exams over with... Here now (finally! -- left myself logged in while I had to study...) to say thanks to Yoshi and Sir Rols for a job well done pulling off this comp... Sorry to see it having to go through that impasse days earlier, but worth the trouble in the end... Congrats to Paul with his stunning Mumbai logo! Voted for it because of its simplicity and the striking fluidity on the contours made by the fronds... Yeah, certainly better... Putting subjectivity and application considerations aside, I had to wonder why a logo designer or agency can't pull off a brilliant finishing product (like Paul's here), when no one could stop them from exerting their audacity and grit to do so much to make a masterpiece of a logo. 'Cause I haven't seen that in a while (or have I desensitized myself?) Year-long clinical clerkship commences by June, will be going round the hospital from then every day and hoping I would get a break to return for next annual comp...

Thanks, it's all good! All the best to Paul and his entries! IMO, brilliant logos in their own respects...
