kung kuhaon nimo ang 5 ka rings, it would just be another jigsaw puzzle for a 2 year old.

if i were to rate this logo, i'd say its worth P100, kung pwede mahangyo 80 na lang.

magkatawa lang ko sa interview sa chairman of 2012 london olympics.

"We don't do bland. This is not a bland city," says London 2012 chairman, Sebastian Coe. "We weren't going to come to you with a dull or dry corporate logo that will appear on a polo shirt and we're all gardening in it, in a year's time. This is something that has got to live for the next five years."

magpa-uso nasad ni sila... i bet, coz it's said to be designed by Wolff Olins agency. tsk tsk tsk. no wonder 400k pounds.

Well if very high profile nka nga designer then you'll think everybody will love your design bsan tae pa nah. wahahaha...

mao jud na. you pay for the designers name, not the design itself. but they should be more considerate. its the olympics and not just any other ordinary sports affair. they better give the task to somebody else if they can't come up with a good one. whether they're high class or not, it doesnt change a thing. their design output is nowhere close to being satisfactory

i just think that the logo is ugly. really ugly. The color, the jagged shapes. Its not even remotely clever. its supposed to be animated but they're complaining the animated version causes seizures.

What's the rationale behind it? There's nothing "London" or "United Kingdom" about it.

The organizers have said that people will learn to like it but how can people learn to like it when at this early stage they already hate it very much. There have been thousands of logo alternative submissions waaay better and for free too.

seriously, I've done logo work but even my 5 year old nephew can do this. and to think London is one of the pioneering cities of great design. Look at the Undergound logo. Its brilliant. Couldn't they come up with something better? But usually in my experience when i was working for an ad agency i bet the design firm submitted loads of studies. Some of them even brilliant. But it usually boils down to ego tripping clients who want their own designs done. And no matter how many times you tell them their idea won't work they still refuse to listen. and you can do very little to change it because their paying you. but its really negative press on both design firm and organizer...
