Seattle Sounders

For this weeks blog post I decided to use Seattles soccer team, the Sounders. The reason I chose this design is because its one of my favorite team logos. The colors are used so well to represent the team and the way they incorporated the space needle (an important historic building in Seattle) to the center of the design completes it well. The function of this design is to brand a memorable logo that people would like and it would eventually be printed onto jerseys, websites, and accessories to name a few. The sharp edges, colors, and modern/bold font type are what attract me to this logo the most.

Rinat Soccer

As I was looking through my mail I came across a Soccer.com magazine and decided to look through the new gear they had. I came across an interesting design for Rinat, a company that specializes in goalkeeper gloves. I liked this design because of the illustration but I do find it rather different that they don't include a real picture of the gloves. The function of this design is to get consumers to purchase the gloves and the design illustrates an intimidating guard-like person that I believe was used to make people feel like the gloves will make them a better keeper. I also liked the bold and aggressive style of text they used along with the choice of colors.

Dodge Viper

This week I came across a nice advertisement on the Car and Driver magazine designed by Dodge to promote the new style of the Dodge Viper. The function of this advertisement is to remind people that the Viper is back and with a new style for 2016. I really like this design because I like how the sans-serif type is big and red. Red always catches attention more and I think by putting the image of the car in front of the text they added more emphasis on the car as well. The modern text is loud and also suits the Dodge logo well.
