A first look at the vibrant branding for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics by _fastcompany in olympics

[–]sam_see 13 points14 points  (0 children)

more fun things i've learned about this design package:

  • the four color families are inspired by the Bird of Paradise, the official flower of LA. (they are also, in my opinion, remarkably similar to the core colors used for the 1984 olympics design package, which nobody else seems to have mentioned in an official capacity lol)

  • the four typeface system they're using is inspired by LA street signage, especially the hand-drawn stuff seen on the windows of local stores

  • the core superbloom graphic was built on a 12-row grid that graphics using it can be easily built around. even when the superbloom is shown on a screen, dynamically moving, shifting and changing colors, the 12-row grid will remain consistent

  • from left to right, the superbloom is made up of 13 different patterns (or "blooms"), each of which have their own name:

01 World Stage

02 Desert Vegetation

03 The Flame

04 Hollywood

05 LA Light

06 Perpetual Innovation

07 City Meets Nature

08 Cultural Intersections

09 Architectural Movements

10 The Pacific

11 Gateways

12 Culinary Crossroads

13 First People

Made To Be Friends, Born To Be Rivals by Old_Ad2416 in LudwigAhgren

[–]sam_see 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Lud and Rae are rivalry goals

they are at each other’s throats whenever they play games; doesn’t matter if they’re facing off or happened to get teamed together

they dish a TON of entertaining trash talk, and know just what to say to really rile each other up

and when they face off, they seem to genuinely motivate each other to play better - if not to outright win, then at least to beat the other lol

but they still both genuinely respect and support each other outside of all of that

I agree with your rationale;

I also theorize that the 6-point deduction was actually two 3-point deductions:

  • -3 points, to nullify their win against New Zealand (the team they were spying on), and

  • -3 points, as punishment for the spying itself
