ACTUA logo redesign competition!

Mission: To rebrand ACTUA into the 21st century.

Many of you may have seen our old logo on ACTUA disc floating around. ACTUA want to update the design.

Can you give us a modern logo?

ACTUA want to offer $300 to someone to come up with a design. The rules of this competition follow:

-The design (or variants of) should be able to be suitable to put on a webpage, on a disc, on a letterhead and on a shirt.
-There are no limit to the number of entries that an individual can submit
-Collaborative efforts are permitted
-Entries must be in by the deadline of 30 November 2010 and must be submitted in electronic format to thomasgabriel.watson@gmail.com

Tips for the entries:
-Have a look at the new AFDA logo. One possibility is for our logo to have a similar aesthetic.
- Alternatively, look at what other states have done and see if their concepts could inspire a unique ACT design. I have also linked the Tassy association site, which is widely regarded as the best logo currently around. Having something associated with the ACT isn't a bad idea but probably best to avoid parliament house or public service references.
-It is beneficial but not compulsory for designers to have experience with putting designs on to discs

The designs will be examined and a winner picked at the next ACTUA committee after 30 November 2010.

  1. Aw man, the only problem with the current logo is nobody frickin' uses it! ;)

    But then I don't live in the ACT so it doesn't matter what I think!
