    Munich 1972: It’s kinetical, simple and complex at the same time, so visual, easy to remember, it has character, and it’s sophisticated.

    Mexico 1968, because it merges contemporary art and ethnic references. It’s so simple but catchy, a great brand!

    London 2012. Everyone hates it because its vibrant, audacious and irreverant. Not Bauhaus clean lines or too obviously, swooshingly corporate. Give London a break!

    Bland, boring not much to do with the Russian landscape. Why do they have to use a URL as their official logo???

  7. Olympic enthusiast opinó:

    Sochi 2014 and London 2012. As we progress with the Olympic movement, the graphic designs get worse…I hope Rio 2016 turns it around!!!
