I can’t help but imagine the conversation that took place between the British Olympic Association and the designers of the Olympic logo…
British Olympic Association – “Hello, we’d like a logo for the Olympics please.”
Designers – “Errr…. sure, what sort of design do you want?”
British Olympic Association – “Well, according to the research we’ve done over the last year we’d like a dynamic and vibrant logo please.”
Designers – “Sure, that’ll be 400,000 please”
British Olympic Association – “Hmm.. that’s a bit steep isn’t it?”
Designers – “Well yes, but you are getting two colours here.”
British Olympic Association – “I guess so, it’s a deal. See you in a few months.”
Designers – “Wehay!! Bye then!”
Designers – “Lads! Get that work experience lad to knock something up in Microsoft Word will ya? We’re all going to Cancun for Christmas!!!”
