The 55DSL Logo Remix Contest by Cut&Paste
The 55DSL Logo Remix Contest
With the imminence of 55DSL’s 15th anniversary in 2009, 55DSL is ready to celebrate the unique mix of attitude and aesthetics it has made all its own. To do so, 55DSL has turned to the input of design company Cut&Paste’s own culturally diverse, design-savvy, and urban-centric global audience through the 55DSL Logo Remix contest.
Contestants will need to successfully reinterpret the Shield logo and represent 55DSL’s identity as an experimental, innovative brand. This will involve a balancing act of looking back at the label’s origins as well as forward to its future, considering the graphic design, urban culture, extreme sports, and music influences that have always been at the heart of the label’s fun-loving, nonconformist attitude. Submitted designs will be evaluated by a distinguished panel of eight international judges, ranging from acclaimed graffiti artist Emit to 55DSL’s creative director Andrea Rosso, who will select the top five submissions. A creative panel from 55DSL will then review the top logo designs and select their winner.
The Grand Prize winner will receive a 1,055€ award and see his/her logo design produced by 55DSL on a T-shirt for its 2010 Spring/Summer collection. During the contest period, all submitted designs will be showcased in a permanent online gallery on the Cut&Paste website for public viewing, commenting, and voting. The contestant whose design receives the most votes will be named the winner of the People’s Choice Prize and receive a special 55DSL goodie bag filled with items from 55DSL’s limited edition collections.
The entry period and online voting begins today and all entries must be submitted no later than 11:59pm PST on December 5, 2008 and online voting will remain open through December 12, 2008.
