The winner of Eulda "The European Logo Design"











Logo name: Consumer Society and Citizen Networks

Nation: Serbia

Agency: Jovan Rocanov (Serbia) for Kaffeine Communications (Kiev, Ukraine)

Designer(s): Jovan Rocanov, Anna Timkov

Client: Consumer Society and Citizen Networks

Description: Logo for the Consumer Society and Citizen Networks (Ukraine). The idea was to show the protection of the consumers in the simpliest way. The solution was to combine a well-known symbol of the market/consumption such as the bar code (which graphically looks like the rain) with an ordinary umbrella (symbol of protection).



I like the use of negative space for this logo, the curved line of the barcode made it look like a regular umbrella to show the sign of protection, and also technology, this has been done by using some simple lines in black and white.

Yulia Brodskaya

I have found a typography artist from russia, who is now working in UK

Here are some of her designs.



























































































Her designs are typography made by paper and highly detailed hand-made craft objects. I like the colour and details about her work, every single bits of the work have been delicatedly designed, which makes her work looks very feminine.

Here is her website.

Grand Lisboa

My home town is called Macau, it's one of the two special administration regions in China, the other one is the well known city in Asia, Hong Kong. Macau was both the first and last European colony in China.Portuguese traders first settled in Macau in the 16th century and subsequently administered the region until the handover on December 20, 1999.

Macau's economy is based largely on tourism, much of it geared toward gambling. It is also a city where you can find builidings with a mixed style of European and Chinese culture.

The building that I want to introduce in here is a casino hotel called Grand Lisboa, there are over 20 major casinos in Macau, Grand Lisboa is one of the famous landmark of Macau, it is an iconic building set in the heart of the city, is a testament to extraordinary elegance. With its distinctive location and architectural design, 12 acclaimed restaurants and 24-hour entertainment, the Grand Lisboa has truly earned its reputation as one of Asia's finest casino hotel.

Grand Lisboa (traditional Chinese 新葡京), owned by Sociedade de Turismo e Diversões de Macau and designed by Hong Kong architects Dennis Lau and Ng Chun Man, is a 58-floor 258 metres tallskyscraper. This design is based on the appearance of a lotus flower, as it is a symbol of Macau.
