oakydoky Posted August 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 A special Tartan is being designed for the commonwealth games to be used as part of the visual identity. A competition was set up to allow school kids to propose designs via an online tartan generator: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMarkSnow2012 Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Here are some views of the branding as it is appearing around the city (mostly just on the main shopping streets at the moment): Central Station merchandise outlet (incidentally, merchandise is also available at other City outlets such as museums). Buchanan Street- junction with West George Street. Subway station, Buchanan Street. Buchanan Street, junction with Royal Bank Place. In case anybody was wondering- the north side of the School of Art. And the south-west corner. Also nothing much to do with the CWG- the totally bonkers but very enjoyable Riverside Museum, designed by Zaha Hadid. Take your binoculars if you visit, to see the cars on the top shelf. Legacy banner. Central Station- the Countdown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TorchbearerSydney Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 So heartbreaking to see the burnt out Glasgow School of Arts- and just before the Games too..... one of the most amazing 20th Century buildings anywhere.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMarkSnow2012 Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 the big G That's impressive- on Tuesday there was a great big ugly fence right round the Square (and no sunshine, of course). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattygs Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 Must say I was expecting a little bit more with the Glasgow branding, I thought it would try and be a little bit out of the box like London, but I don't see too much of that happening yet. Not entirely sure the logic behind the look graphic on the banners, but it's nothing amazing, though at the same time not entirely displeasing to the eye. Of course we will wait and see what the field of play will look like, but nothing is wowing me yet. The multi lined font that is being used in various promotions and on the website is neat though. That logo astrolabe sculpture adds some brightness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexjc Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 Someone's done well to photoshop in that blue sky. Ha ha... By the way, does that sculpture spin around on it'self? That would be cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
