Each month, Wired Design asks you to re-imagine our banner. It’s a chance for you to take the word "Design" and have your way with it (within certain constraints, natch). The best entry will top our site for an entire month.
For August, 2012, we've selected a submission from James Albert.
Albert cut his teeth at Oregon State University (GO BEAVS!), where he learned about the importance of stripped-down design. He fell in love with Boise, Idaho, and joined a large design firm there, Murie Design Group, as vice president. His clients include Hewlett-Packard, General Electric, and Chevron.
We asked him what inspired the redesign:
"Deconstruction: Subtracting elements so that only key areas of the letter forms are left, without losing integrity," Albert says. "It is a simple lesson I learned from a course I took at Oregon State University."
Have you gotten to work on our September logo yet? Don't forget to read theinstructionsand submit your redesigns.
If selected, we'll publicize your work with a post just like this one.
