Stockholm Design Lab Redesigns Volvo’s Logotype

Volvo Cars have just launched the all-new XC90. The SUV marks the beginning of a new chapter in the company’s history, embodying its future design direction and being the first of its cars to carry the new more prominent “ironmark”.

Together with the T-shaped “Thor’s Hammer” DRL lights, the ironmark introduces an entirely new face for Volvo’s forthcoming generation of cars.

“This is one of the most important days in our history. We are not just launching a car, but re-launching our brand. This day marks a new era for our company. The XC90 paves the way for a portfolio of exciting new cars to come in the following years,” said Håkan Samuelsson, president and CEO of Volvo.

The Swedish carmaker engaged Stockholm Design Lab to redesign its ironmark.

“To develop such a central part of Volvo’s identity is a complex task that requires equal parts caution and courage,” says Anneli Myrin-Holloway, client services director at SDL.

“Volvo needed an update of the ironmark, optimised for communication and versatile for all types of applications. The symbol has been simplified in its purest form and conveys the vision to be the world’s most progressive and desirable premium car brand,” say the designers.

THANKS. YOUR MESSAGE HAS BEEN SENT.
WE'LL RESPOND SHORTLY.

Logo-Designer.co is an online platform open to both professionals and students. We’re interested in your logo’s ‘design story’ – context, history, background, ideation, narrative, symbolism, meaning, semiotics, and other such things. We want to see iterative sketches, including discarded preliminary and prefinal designs, wherever possible. If you’re able to tell us about budget and time constraints, please do so. The more information, the better.

WHAT YOU NEED TO DO:

  • Provide large-sized images showing your design in lots of detail, saved at 150 or 300 dpi in JPEG (preferred) or PNG format
  • Include the ‘design story’ text document, not forgetting to list relevant categories and tags
  • Enclose the above in a single zip/rar file and send to: submissions [at] logo-designer [dot] co
  • You can submit more than one logo design; however, the limit is one submission per month
  • Be patient (it may be a while before we feature or publish your work).

OTHER CONTENT:

As well as logos, we’ll also consider the following for publication:

  • Font design
  • Icon design
  • Articles: opinion/advice (from both logo designers and brand strategy consultants).

RULES:

Please note: Logo-Designer.co will not show work related to any of the following:
