Remember the
Spreadshirt Crowdsourcing contest to get a new logo from its community, the
Open Logo Project 1.6 (OLP) ? I was part of the judging panel, and it was a fun activity to do. "We wanted to take this to the community who use, create and live our product, rather than to an agency",
Jana Eggers, Spreadshirt CEO, is quoted in a
press release.
The results were in at the end of the year, and now
finally the winning logo has been placed on the site and all CI materials.
Kim Larsen’s ‘Love Tab’ was the winning design, chosen from 2,800 submissions (from 45 countries). Kim is a 23 year old graphic and interactive media designer from Sweden.
"I wanted to make personal branding visually simple and to embed a symbol everyone can relate to.", he says, "The heart resonates with the feeling of love you have for something you’ve created and the stitching with the hand-crafted nature of the product."
