Dislike for 2012 Logo



This is the logo design for the 2012 Olympics. I'm not sure the aim that they were trying to take with this but I think its ridiculously ugly. My history of graphic design teacher said that they even had it so it was moving and flashing (somehow) but it was causing seizures therefore they stopped that. It reminds me of the 80's that or cavemen drawings. I can appreciate the creativity it may have taken to get this design but the result is not pleasing to my eye. I don't think I'm the only one that feels this way, obviously the group of designers in England okayed it. It just doesn't speak Olympics to me (besides the Olympic rings). The cost of getting this logo was 400,00 pounds, that's $620,775.73.
