UnclearInitial Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Pretty good, Love the font. Seems like Olympic logos are on a generally upward trajectory from the absolute nadir that was hit with the 2012 London logo 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrimalCookie Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 That's nice, but I still prefer the 24 Eiffel Tower logo from the candidacy. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadSeed84 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Great logo, I think it's weird that it gets unveiled a year before the next games even begin. Simple and good, I like the font too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 The Eiffel 24 (which is no eiffel-65) is okay but eventually it gets to be like St. Louis and the Gateway Arch, like, there's gotta be more to this city. The lettering reminds me of Toulouse-Lautrec posters, too. 8 Quote ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walk-Off Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 On 10/21/2019 at 11:19 PM, TenaciousG said: Really just thankful the Olympics didn’t fall into the absolute trash “branding” trap that ruined Super Bowl logos I suspect that the struggles that the NFL has had with logos for recent Super Bowls are the product of a desperate desire within that league's leadership for a common element in the branding of each Super Bowl. Meanwhile, the Olympic movement has enjoyed a strong common branding element for decades thanks to that iconic symbol of five interlocking rings. It seems to me that as long as those rings, the host city's name, and the year in which that city is holding an Olympic Games are present, an organizing committee for those Games and anyone hired by such a committee to design an emblem for that edition of the Olympics should expect to have a wide degree of freedom in crafting a logo that works well with the event's place and time. As for the 2024 Olympic Games' new emblem, it is a stylish and alluringly daring symbol that is very befitting an Olympics being held in a city known worldwide as a hub of art, design, and fashion. Whoever developed that logo gets an emphatic merci beaucoup from me. Now, I am curious as to what will become of the rest of the visual identity for the 2024 Games. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It works well for Paris. 2 Quote PotD 26/2/12 1/7/15 2020 BASS Spin the Wheel, Make the Deal Regular Season Champion 2021 BASS NFL Pick'em Regular Season Champion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepis21 Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 Paris unveiled their pictograms for Olympics: https://www.paris2024.org/en/pictograms/ IMO they are very bad, pictograms should be simple and readible so when you looking at them you are able to easily recognize which sports you're watching. These ones aren't like that and from far they look like a big blob. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GriffinM6 Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 Yeah those are bad. They look more like icons that show up on the loading screen in a video game than sports visualizations. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These ones aren't like that and from far they look like a big blob. I appreciate the artistic take on these, but the design philosophy here misses the point of pictograms. They are supposed to be simple and distinct enough to clearly convey the sport its representing in a non-verbal form. Many of these are hard to distinguish at first look. If you showed me the gymnastics icon, I would probably guess that it represented boxing or pro wrestling first, not gymnastics. On the other hand, the set of graphics they will be using are pretty slick. Lots of colors/gradients with simple shapes. Reminds me of It's a Small World at the Disney parks, but in a good way. Each city/area will also have its own distinct style. Lots of emphasis on art and creativity overall. 2 Quote Visit my website at SSmith Designs (google.com) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PERRIN Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Love those patterns and the color scheme is gorgeous, but the logo and pictograms don't fit the rest of the identity at all. It seems like each section of the identity was designed by a different team. It's disjointed and messy; a far cry from Tokyo 2020's gorgeous identity. I also don't get the logo at all, it feels more like an overpriced small-town hair salon logo than the flagship symbol of an Olympic brand. Even the typeface feels off. Why is the I in Paris lowercase when the rest of the letters are uppercase? You'd think a city like Paris, with its strong visual identity and bustling art and design scenes, could scrape together something better than this. Quite disappointed in the whole package, patterns and colors notwithstanding. Looks to me like the worst Olympic brand since London 2012.

While I'm sure this isn't the rationale, you pointing out the lowercase i reminded me of this little design quirk from Paris. It's a funny symmetry, but like I said, probably not the reason it was done. 1 Quote I HATE THIS TIMELINE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
