barrack Posted July 30, 2015 Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 Have you ever come across the logo of a company, organization, or office that made you think, "Heh, that would make a great Olympic logo"? For those who have participated in the logo design comps, what about those logos that have inspired you? This post was inspired by drawing the similarity of the Tokyo 2020 emblem with the Théâtre de Liège logo. Share those designs that you've come across and tell us why you think they'd make a good games logo for any particular city or time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barrack Posted July 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 Here's one that I felt had an Olympic feel to it. It actually served as my inspiration for my design for the Tokyo 2020 logo competition. I liked the geometry, symmetry and colors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woohooitsme83 Posted August 9, 2015 Report Share Posted August 9, 2015 What host city would you think this most appropriate? Tokyo! The Japanese flag, and the land of the rising sun thing. Plus they look like fireworks, and Asia loves their fireworks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baron-pierreIV Posted August 9, 2015 Report Share Posted August 9, 2015 I don't see how that works as a Paralympic logo. It doesn't say anything to me that it's for Handicapped competition. (Sorry for this late comment but as I said in its initial appearance w/ the Oly logo, I just completely ignored it. But take away the Oly logo, and the dumb thing doesn't mean anything.)

Faiyez Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 This post was inspired by drawing the similarity of the Tokyo 2020 emblem with the Théâtre de Liège logo.

woohooitsme83 Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 ^And that's exactly why so many people dislike it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faiyez Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 It was initially disliked simply for what it was, not because of percieved plagiarism. People here jumped on that bandwagon later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woohooitsme83 Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 I meant that it was disliked because it looks unfitting, not plagiarized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barrack Posted September 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 I'm surprised that the IOC hasn't yet taken action against that furniture company. Shining Batu looks great!

Is Shining Batu a brand of feminine hygiene product? The Olympic furniture logo is reserved so I'm not sure how IOC could take action against that logo and Shining Batu is actually a tourism campaign for Batu city which is nearby my hometown...
