Rob2012 Posted July 8, 2012 Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 Those characters have been used for the past 3 or 4 years in Lloyds TSB's TV ads. As an official Games sponsor Lloyds seem to have been given huge amounts of ad space at the main station for the Games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Tickle Posted July 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 Stratford station isnt being given the look treatment. looks like Lloyds must have bought it as a massive advertising space You beat me to it Rob : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Athensfan Posted July 8, 2012 Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 Yes, I understand this is Lloyd's -- not LOCOG. I was responding to Kevzz's comment about cohesion. While there's some nice carry over for Brits, the characters won't mean the same thing to foreigners. Considering this is the station for the Olympic park, I would've expected a few more Look tie-ins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob2012 Posted July 8, 2012 Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 I should imagine, with the clean venue requirement, every Olympics has the perimeter and the transport hubs covered in Official sponsors ads. Whether more "Look" elements will be added around this, who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevzz Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 Some pics from Twitter of the rings at Aquatics Centre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Tickle Posted July 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 They do look mighty fine. Theres a set of Logo pins about to be released that are venue specific using the look colors for each venue. So the Aquatics pin will be Blue with yellow shards. Just another example of how versatile the London brand is. One day hopefully it will get the credit it deserves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 Those rings by the aquatics centre will become a must have photo for hundreds of thousands of people in the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevzz Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 Those rings by the aquatics centre will become a must have photo for hundreds of thousands of people in the park. Definitely! Aquatics seems to be the only venue with a proper grand approach in entering the building via the two staircase. I love how green and healthy those grass looks. The rains have been doing wonders for the plants around the Park I reckon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Tickle Posted July 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 Watching the final yesterday i was thinking they have got one hell of a mountain to climb to get that court up to scratch. Someone also told me they are replacing the seats, I can't believe thats true, does anyone know. Just to add the shard pattern to the courts, is a great idea but surely isn't worth the extra cost.

NY20?? Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 Is it really to put in the shard pattern onto the seats? I imagine it would be to temporarily get rid of the royal box on Centre Court. It works... That was quick! I thought they would keep the branding mostly green though with purple accents to fit in with the Club's own scheme.

Athensfan Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 I seriously dig the grassy steppes behind the rings at the Aquatic center. Theres something sort of fanciful about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Tickle Posted July 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 OOOh maybe it is to replace the royal box, maybe I read too much into it. Athensfan I agree that grassy step area is really different and a lovely detail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevzz Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 Quick diversion since davey mentioned this: Do you think an Olympic gold medal will mean more to Andy Murray than winning a Wimbledon? Or for any tennis player - which is more precious, grand slam or Olympic gold? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
