Midway Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 The logos are self explanatory. I wanted to get away from the cliche green and blue Seattle looks and give them a more original color scheme. At first I wanted to go with a plum-like red and mint green but the red looked too similar to the Avalanche's wine/maroon and I thought I was thinking a little too inside the box trying to revert the Totems to the Metropolitans era, to which they have no connection. Eventually I settled on a more brick red and cyan for practical reasons. 1, they reflect the bold natural colors found in Northwest Native American imagery, and 2, brick red could be a simple carryover from a certain franchise we'd all like to see relocated And here's a take with green as the basis for the color schemeThe hardest part about this was finding a unique color scheme that deviated from the norm but still managed to tie into Native American art from the region. Any thoughts on revisions would be welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saathoff Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 I like it. The designs are great. But the colors aren't cliché. It's the color of Seattle, different shades are certainly welcome, but as a Seattle sports fan and a guy thats deep into my cities sports team, don't go away from the colors.Other that you've done outstanding with the logo. Curious what font you used by the way? Senior Creative at Sporting Kansas City. Follow me on Twitter: @NateTheDesigner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midway Posted December 1, 2012 Author Share Posted December 1, 2012 Triplex. Something subtle yet effective for the brand. I'll be posting uniforms up eventually to really flesh this thing out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
