And the design geek in me appreciates that they're probably the first club anywhere to use CMYK as their color scheme. I was thinking the same thing when looking at the info sheet. "Hey, that looks like the back of my old hp printer cartridge!" I think it works great for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Noire Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 I’m no soccer fan, but I’ll cop a hat with the logo on it. I like the design, and I guess that’s how I’ll support the home team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kc51design Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 So far I love everything with this team, great original name, awesome original colors, great logo with new original crest shape... Impressed. Do we know who the designer is? lockerroom51 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4_tattoos Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 OT: I know that UNLV's football team is supposed to move into the Raiders new stadium in Vegas, but does anybody know what's going to end up happening with Sam Boyd Stadium? I know that the Lights are going to play at a minor league baseball stadium, but renovating Sam Boyd in to a soccer stadium seems like the kind of thing that could happen (hopefully paid for privately). Even if it were a smaller USL sized stadium. Hotter Than July > Thriller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tBBP Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Wow...that is an EXCELLENT find. If that was in any way, shape or form included in LVSC's vision board for their badge, that makes the final product that much more genius. *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tBBP Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 I think we all knew that.? That said, don't doubt it too much...you'd be amazed the things people come across that shift their perspective on things. True, someone could've come up with, on their own, the idea to rotate that shape 90°, but something as simple as that keytag could have really hammered that idea home. Related...of all the Las Vegas-related logos I've seen utilizing that shape, this is the first one I've seen rotated like that. *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boyd is way too big for second division soccer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Related...of all the Las Vegas-related logos I've seen utilizing that shape, this is the first one I've seen rotated like that. That was the case for me when I first approached this design job, but it was another soccer team's logo that actually, in your words, hammered it home for me: While people would call this a diamond, it's also called a lozenge, as well. This is something I learned when creating my design. Initially, my design was going to be a lozenge-based one that incorporated the four suits of a deck of cards, but then I remembered the Welcome Sign's shape, which is similar to a lozenge. The only things different are that it is rotated on its side and that the sides are curved, unlike the soccer team logo above. A bonus of the Welcome Sign being the base for my design was that while the sign itself is owned by the Young Electric Sign Company, the design itself is within public domain. This is due to the fact that it was never copyrighted since the designer of the sign, Betty Willis, considered it her gift to the city and wanted it to be public domain. In my opinion, where I went wrong with my design is that I cluttered it with the circles with the "LAS VEGAS" lettering on top of my design, and that was just another part of concentrating too much on the sign itself and not on what can be done with its shape.
